Methodology & sources

Methodology - Cape Verde (2026)

Educational model - not a tax authority assessment, not a tax return, not tax advice. Currency CVE (Cape Verdean escudo).

Employee (IRPS + INPS)

  • IRPS is progressive on annual income: 0% up to CVE 150,000; 10% to 300,000; 15% to 500,000; 20% to 800,000; 25% above.
  • INPS (social security): employee 8.5% and employer 16% of gross salary. The employee contribution is deductible before IRPS.
  • Taxable annual income = annual gross - employee INPS.
  • The model computes the single-person case; family-situation deductions are out of scope.

Self-employed (sole proprietor)

  • Self-employed business income is taxed on the same IRPS scale on annual net profit (revenue minus actual expenses); INPS is not modelled for the self-employed case.
