Finland collected 47.3 billion euro in 2025 income taxes; capital taxes up 13%

Verohallinto collected 47.3 billion euro in income taxes for 2025Vero, 4.9 per cent more than the year beforeVero. Personal customers' earned and capital income taxes accounted for 39.8 billion, up 1.7 billion (4.5 per cent), and corporate income tax brought 7.5 billion, up 0.5 billion (7 per cent). Earned income tax yielded about 35.8 billion (up 1.2 billion, 3.6 per cent), while capital income tax grew by nearly 0.5 billion (13 per cent)Vero to just over 4 billion.

Earned-income growth ran at the pace of previous years, in the words of ylitarkastaja Matti Luokkanen of Verohallinto. Capital income, and with it capital income tax, typically swings widely between years; the fastest recent growth ran from 2020 to 2021 at over 40 per cent. Refunds to personal customers totalled about 2.7 billion euro, 10 per cent less than the year beforeVero, while residual taxes assessed reached about 1.4 billion, almost 14 per cent more than in 2024 — growth Luokkanen calls natural, since residual tax often falls due when a person has capital income. The largest average refunds for tax year 2025 went to Kauniainen (1,321 euro), Marttila (1,009 euro) and Vesilahti (993 euro).

Of corporate tax for 2025, 76.35 per cent goes to the state (5.7 billion euro) and 23.65 per cent to municipalities (1.8 billion). Helsinki received the most (453 million euro) and Kökar the least (11,300 euro). Relative growth was fastest in Utsjoki in Lapland (+101 per cent on 2024) and weakest in Hattula in Kanta-Häme (−53 per cent). Each municipality's euro amount depends on total national collection and its confirmed 2025 sharing ratio, which rests on 2022 and 2023; local companies' 2025 results feed into the municipality's own ratio only in later years.

Every Finn's 2025 taxation was completed by 31 October 2026Vero. Personal and corporate 2025 tax data goes public on 12 November 2026Vero, and Verohallinto publishes statistical data on 2025 taxation on 1 December 2026Vero. Withholding followed the tax card through 2025 while advance taxes covered rental income, capital gains and business or farm income; additional advance for 2025, for example after selling a home or securities, could be paid from January 2026 until one's own assessment closed, with other sale gains otherwise arriving later as residual tax. The figures are Verohallinto's 11 November 2026 release on 2025 income-tax collection.
