How Australian Tax Works

The Australian tax system is progressive, meaning the higher your income, the higher the percentage of tax you pay. Individuals earning below AUD 18,200 are generally not taxed (tax-free threshold). Beyond that, different tax rates apply in steps, commonly referred to as tax brackets. Additionally, residents typically pay a 2% Medicare levy, and optional super contributions may be deducted from gross pay.
