Tax Facts and Figures
This edition of Tax Facts and Figures gives a synopsis of some information on direct and indirect taxes applicable to Barbados for income year 2009/2010. We have also included a summary of contributions due to be made by employers, employees and the self-employed to the National Insurance Scheme. All amounts are in Barbados dollars. Currently the Barbados dollar is pegged to the US dollar at a rate of Bds$2 – US$1.
