Cutting taxes for Brussels residents from 2028

The Brussels Region has decided to cut the regional share of personal income tax by one percentage point from the 2028 tax year. This reduction is intended to increase the disposable income of Brussels residents and make the Region more attractive to live in. In concrete terms, this reform will mean an annual saving of €147 for a single person with a net income of €2,700 a month, and €152 for a married couple with two children each earning €2,400 net a month.
