Wealth tax by country

How this table is built

High-net-worth relocators often ask which countries still charge annual wealth tax. In our coverage set, most profiles show 0% net wealth tax; a minority retain or discuss wealth-type levies.

This table is generated from each country’s wealth-tax page. Treat 0% as “no general net wealth tax in our summary,” not “no tax on assets at all.”

Educational comparison — valuations, exemptions, and political reform risk need local advice.

How to read the columns

• Headline wealth tax is the general net wealth / net worth rate from the country page.
• Secondary column may show asset tax, property tax, or filing notes when stored as rates.
• Property tax is not the same as net wealth tax; country pages explain the difference.
• Sort low → high to see remaining positive wealth-tax jurisdictions in the set.

Important caveats

• Property, land, and luxury taxes can apply without a net wealth tax.
• Wealth tax proposals can change quickly; check last-updated dates.
• Foreign assets may still be in scope if you are a worldwide-tax resident elsewhere.
