That is, this tax is levied on the income earned by employees, non-exempt self-employed workers and pensioners. The withholding is made by the employer who has the obligation to deliver monthly the withheld part of your salary to the State.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How is the withholding tax calculated?<\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>The calculation of the amount withheld depends on the type of worker, this means that it varies according to whether you are self-employed or a pensioner.
