Cambodia
Individual - Taxes on personal income
Last reviewed - 19 September 2024There is no personal income tax, per se, in Cambodia. Instead, a monthly salary tax is imposed on individuals who derive income from employment. General consulting income is excluded from salary tax but is subject to tax on income (see the Taxes on corporate income section in the Corporate tax summary for more information on CIT), although rules exist that may deem certain consultants as employees.
A Cambodian resident's worldwide salary is subject to Cambodia salary tax, while non-residents are taxed on Cambodian-sourced salary.
