Tax in Guatemala

Guatemala applies a top marginal income tax rate of 7% and a capital gains tax rate of 10%. The country operates a territorial tax regime, taxing only income sourced within Guatemala, with foreign-sourced income generally exempt. Expats who establish tax residency in Guatemala and earn the bulk of their income abroad may significantly reduce their overall tax burden under this structure.
