25 percent flat rate tax

If you do not submit an exemption order or if your capital gains exceed the exemption amount you qualify for, your BW-Bank will apply a tax rate of 25 percent to your capital gains and transfer the relevant amount to the revenue office – where relevant, inclusive of church tax. Hence, taking action now will pay off later. Please get in touch with one of our advisers for more information on how to make the most of your assets.
