The same article also created a temporary 'solidarity levy' that would have raised the top two brackets to 38% and 48%; it expired on 1 January 2022 and no longer applies.
Suriname taxes resident individuals' net annual income on a progressive scale under Article 34 of the Income Tax Act: exempt up to SRD 108,000, then rising in steps to a top rate of 38% above SRD 234,000. The same article's temporary 'solidarity levy,' which would have raised the top brackets to 38%/48%, expired on 1 January 2022 and no longer applies.
VAT
In practice
- Filing
Registration is mandatory once annual turnover exceeds SRD 1,000,000; below that threshold, or if next year's turnover is not expected to exceed it, registration is not required. Returns are filed and VAT is paid monthly, from the 1st through the 15th of the month following the reporting period.

Capital Gains Tax
Suriname's income tax law taxes only five enumerated categories of income, and gains from selling shares held as a private investment are not among them. The law's definition of income from movable capital covers only its recurring yield (dividends, interest), and separately excludes profit from buying and selling an asset that was not itself altered between purchase and sale.
Wealth Tax
Suriname levies a general annual net wealth tax ('Vermogensbelasting') on residents' zuiver vermogen (net worth = total assets minus debts; Art. 3 and 8), at a flat 3% of the taxable sum (Art. 14(1)), after an exemption of SRD 100,000 for unmarried taxpayers or SRD 120,000 for married taxpayers (Art. 14(2)). The tax year is the calendar year (Art. 15). Non-residents are taxed only narrowly, on Suriname-situated real estate and permanent-establishment assets (Art. 2, 10). Originally enacted in 1944 (G.B. 1944 no. 185), consolidated in 1960 (no. 85), and last amended in 2002 (S.B. 2002 no. 107). The tax authority's own site hosts a live 'Vermogensbelasting 2025' declaration form, and Surinamese business associations were publicly lobbying in 2025 to raise the exemption thresholds — both indicating the law remains in force and collected, not dormant.
