Taxation in Turkey

Taxation is an important part in the Turkish economy. Turkey has a 25.5% tax to GDP ratio (in 2016).[1] Most of the taxes are levied by central government. However some specific taxes are levied by municipalities, with the amount determined by centrally issued legislation. Municipalities have no authority to make their own tax laws.
