What this value means
BANDS APPLY TO THE QUOTIENT FAMILIAL, NOT TO GROSS OR EVEN TOTAL HOUSEHOLD INCOME. Gabon uses a French-style family-quotient system: annual net taxable income is divided by the household's number of parts to give Q, the scale below is applied to Q, and the result is multiplied back by the number of parts. Applying these bands directly to a salary will overstate tax for any household with more than one part. FORM OF THE STATUTE: the DGI publishes article 174 as quick-computation formulas on Q rather than as marginal bands - 5%xQ-75,000; 10%xQ-171,000; 15%xQ-306,000; 20%xQ-486,000; 25%xQ-744,000; 30%xQ-1,119,000; 35%xQ-1,669,000, with no tax below 1,500,000. The marginal bands served above are the exact algebraic equivalent and were verified continuous at every threshold (e.g. at Q=1,920,000 both the 5% and 10% formulas yield 21,000). Top marginal rate 35%, unbounded, hence max:null. Loi n° 041/2025 did NOT amend article 174; effective_from marks the currently-in-force CGI text rather than a scale change, and the scale has been stable for several years - the original enacting instrument and date were not confirmed from a primary source and are therefore not asserted. Note that a widely-mirrored version of this scale omits the 30% band and jumps from 25% straight to 35% above 7,500,000; the DGI's own page carries the 30% band on 7,500,001-11,000,000, and that is what is served. History is empty - no primary instrument evidencing a prior scale was reachable.
