Understanding Nigerian Personal Income Tax

In Nigeria, Personal Income Tax (PIT) is governed by the Nigeria Tax Act (NTA) and is administered by the Nigeria Revenue Service (NRS) for federal employees and State Internal Revenue Services for state residents.

The tax system uses a progressive structure where higher income earners pay a larger percentage of their income in taxes. The first N800,000 of taxable income is tax-free, providing relief for lower-income earners.

Before calculating your tax, you're entitled to a Consolidated Relief Allowance (CRA), which reduces your taxable income. The CRA is calculated as the higher of N200,000 or 1% of your gross income, plus 20% of your gross income.
