dividend tax Dividends are subjected to income tax separately from other income. The first tranche of dividend income has no income tax charge. Dividends above that level attract a charge. There is no tax credit on a dividend received. The tax is not levied on a dividend received by a company. Dividend tax is a UK tax; unlike the main rate of income tax, neither the Scottish Parliament nor the Welsh Assembly has the power to specify a different rate of dividend tax (see Scottish Rate; Welsh Rate). |
