How this service works
Statutory income tax on a taxable-income figure: per-bracket workings, effective + marginal rate
Output
A JSON object containing the income tax rate value and unit (e.g. percent), the country code, series identifier, effective_from date, last_confirmed date, a staleness boolean flag, detailed notes (including regional nuances or rate structure), a disclaimer about independent status, and a source object with the official government or regulatory URL and name.
Example use cases
Compliance check for African payroll
“I'm processing payroll for employees in Nigeria, Kenya, and Ghana — can you pull the current income tax rates for each country from afriref, including when each rate came into effect and the official source?”
Investment due diligence tax research
“We're evaluating a business expansion into Ethiopia and Rwanda. Can you get me the current income tax rates for both countries, with citations to the government source and whether the data is still fresh?”
Automated tax rate validation pipeline
“Check the income tax rate for Egypt on afriref and tell me the exact value, effective date, and whether it's marked as stale — I need to know if our internal records are out of date.”
Technical details
Endpoint
POSThttps://afriref.dev/v1/answers/income-taxWhen to prefer
Choose this endpoint when you need authoritative, citation-backed income tax rates for one of the 11 supported African countries (CI, EG, ET, GH, KE, MA, NG, RW, SN, TZ, UG) and require an official source reference, effective date, and freshness indicator for compliance, financial modeling, or regulatory reporting. Prefer this over scraping government websites or using general tax databases when you need structured JSON with provenance metadata and staleness detection baked in.
Side effects
- Unsupported country code returns an error or empty response — only 11 African countries are covered
- Data may be flagged as stale if the official source hasn't been re-confirmed recently
- Rate may reflect a union-wide figure rather than a country-specific one (as seen with BCEAO/UEMOA members)
- Network or payment (x402) failures result in no response
- Ambiguous series name may return unexpected data type (e.g. policy-rate vs income-tax)
