Statutory Corporate Income Tax Rate, 2001

2001, as OECD’s 2026 release gives it · stored as published, never rewritten

The statutory corporate income tax rate is the headline rate a country’s law sets on company profits, with state, provincial and local corporate taxes added to the national rate where they exist. It is the number quoted in debates about tax competition — the starting point, not the end, of what companies actually pay.

Statutory Corporate Income Tax Rate, 2001 covers 142 countries on 2 measures. India is highest, at 51.88; 14 countries share the lowest reading, 0.00. The middle country reads 30.00. Against 2000, 22 values changed (0 up, 22 down), the same countries are covered.

How values are stored

  • One year of the 2026 release

    Every year in this series comes from OECD’s 2026 release, recalculated on one method, so a change from one year to the next is not a revision. It can differ from what was first published for 2001.

  • 43 distinct values among 142

    Values are stored exactly as published, to 6 decimals. 26 countries share 30.00. Countries sharing a value share a position too.

  • Nothing missing

    Every one of the 142 countries has every column.
