Tax withholding is a tax paid by the employer and is deducted from the employee's
total income to cover the total annual tax that the employee expects to pay to the
government.
In a credible withholding tax (CWT) system, the tax withheld on a particular income
payment is intended to be the same as, or at least approximate, the tax payable to the
recipient on that income. Income recipients are required to file an income tax return
under Articles 51 and 52 in order to report their income and pay the difference
between the tax withheld and the amount paid on their income.
