Annual Wealth Tax
Wealth tax is a tax on net worth (assets minus liabilities), applied in some countries annually.
Net Worth = Total Assets - Total Liabilities
Tax is typically calculated using progressive brackets. For example:
| Net Worth Range | Tax Rate |
|---|---|
| Up to $1M | 0% (exempt) |
| $1M to $5M | 1% |
| $5M to $10M | 2% |
| Over $10M | 3% |
Tax = (Amount in Bracket 1 × Rate 1) + (Amount in Bracket 2 × Rate 2) + ...
Example: Net worth of $8,000,000 with the brackets above:
- First $1M: $0 (exempt)
- $1M to $5M ($4M): $40,000 at 1%
- $5M to $8M ($3M): $60,000 at 2%
- Total wealth tax = $100,000/year
- Effective rate = 1.25%
Tips:
- Wealth taxes are annual, unlike one-time estate or inheritance taxes
- Countries like Norway, Spain, and Switzerland have wealth taxes
- The exempt threshold is the amount below which no tax applies
- Consider both liquid and illiquid assets when calculating net worth
