About Income Tax in Canada (2026)
Canada uses the Canadian Dollar (C$) (CAD) as its currency and has a Purchasing Power Parity index of 1.16 relative to the US Dollar. With a top marginal tax rate of 46.2%, Canada is among the higher-tax countries globally. However, high tax rates often correspond with comprehensive public services including healthcare, education, and social safety nets.
Workers in Canada benefit from a tax-free personal allowance of C$50,197, meaning income below this threshold is not subject to income tax. The employee social security contribution rate is 6.5%, and the employer contribution rate is 7.2%, giving a combined rate of 13.7% that employers should factor into total employment costs.
