Legal Terms - dividend tax
Dividends are taxed as distinct income, apart from other earnings. The initial portion of dividend income is exempt from income tax. Dividends over that threshold incur a fee. No tax credit is applicable on received dividends. The tax is not imposed on dividends received by a corporation. Dividend tax is a tax in the UK; unlike the primary income tax rate, neither the Scottish Parliament nor the Welsh Assembly can establish a distinct rate for dividend tax.
