Recent Tax Relief Measures
The Namibian government has implemented recent tax relief measures aimed at alleviating the financial burden on certain taxpayer groups. Notably, the 2024/25 budget introduced a tax threshold increase, effectively exempting individuals earning between N$50,000 and N$100,000 from paying income tax.
