🇦🇺 Australia — State & Territory Taxes
Australia's 6 states and 2 territories levy payroll tax (4.75%–6.85%), stamp duty on property, and land tax on investment properties. There is no state income tax — income tax is federal only. The Stage 3 tax cuts (effective July 2024) restructured brackets significantly. The ACT is progressively replacing stamp duty with broad-based land value tax. Councils levy rates on property owners.
🇧🇷 Brazil — State & Municipal Taxes
Brazil has one of the world's most complex tax systems. States levy ICMS at 7%–18% varying by state. Municipalities levy ISS (services tax) at 2%–5% and IPTU (urban property tax). A sweeping tax reform (EC 132/2023) is gradually replacing ICMS/ISS with unified IBS and CBS taxes through 2033. States impose ITCMD (inheritance/gift tax) up to 8%.
