Chargeable income = gross annual income minus the TTD 90,000 personal allowance (floored at zero). The first TTD 1,000,000 of chargeable income is taxed at 25%; any chargeable income above TTD 1,000,000 is taxed at 30% on the portion above that threshold. Total tax = (chargeable income up to TTD 1,000,000 × 25%) + (chargeable income above TTD 1,000,000 × 30%).

The personal allowance is TTD 90,000, per the Trinidad and Tobago Board of Inland Revenue's published Individual Income Tax Deductions & Allowances table (ird.gov.tt), which shows the allowance rose from TTD 84,000 (income years 2021-2022) to TTD 90,000 (income year 2023 onward, current). Both the allowance and the 25%/30% band split at TTD 1,000,000 of chargeable income are cross-checked against PwC Tax Summaries (taxsummaries.pwc.com/trinidad-and-tobago), last reviewed 2 June 2026. Figures are current as of 2026; tax law changes with each Budget, so check the official source before relying on a figure.
