Abstract

The tax-free amount is a specific personal income tax advantage. With a minimum tax-free basis, it is possible to waive the taxation of individuals with minimal income. The tax-free amount affects the number of receipts from personal income tax to the state budget and local government units. At the same time, the minimum tax-free amount directly impacts the income levels of low-income earners and, more specifically, the number of earnings and motivation to maintain or secure work. The rise in tax-free amounts increases the population's purchasing power, stimulating consumer demand. In a citizen-friendly tax system, the tax-free amount should be a tool of long-term fiscal policy and fairness of personal taxation. At the same time, it should not threaten the stability of the state financial system and local government administration or the ability to perform tasks in the public sphere.
