Taxes in Australia: what to know

Australia has a single national income tax for residents, the same in every state and territory, collected through PAYG withholding. States fund themselves through payroll tax on employers, stamp duty and land tax rather than income tax.

  • The financial year runs from 1 July to 30 June.
  • Employers pay 12% super on top of salaries.

Largest cities: Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Perth.

How salary sacrifice into super changes your pay

Salary sacrifice swaps take-home pay for extra super, taxed at only 15% inside the fund.
