Effective 1 January 2026, a 25% rate applies to the portion of a defined set of annual incomes under Tax Code article 199 from BYN 350,000 to 600,000, and 30% to the portion above BYN 600,000, each charged on the excess over its threshold. Dividends follow a separate two-tier schedule (13% up to BYN 350,000, 25% above), with no 30% step.

Belarus applies a progressive personal income tax scale: a base rate of 13% covers over 98% of employed persons, a 25% rate applies above BYN 350,000 of annual income, and a 30% rate applies to ultra-high incomes.
