Direct tax: A tax that is paid directly by an individual or organization to the government. Wealth tax, which is levied on the total value of an individual's assets, is a direct tax because it is paid directly by the person or entity owning the wealth.
-
Excise duty: This is an indirect tax imposed on the manufacture or sale of goods within a country. It is not directly paid by the consumer but is included in the price of the product.
-
Value Added Tax (VAT): This is an indirect tax on consumption that is paid by the end consumer but collected and remitted to the government by businesses.
