This page tracks the combined statutory corporate income tax rate in United States — central government plus any sub-central or surtax component, which is the figure normally quoted for cross-border comparison and is often materially higher than the headline central rate alone. Note the statutory rate is not the effective rate: deductions, incentives and the 15% global minimum tax all sit between the two.

Data sourced from OECD via SDMX REST API. This is the statutory rate, not the effective rate: deductions, incentives and the 15% global minimum tax all sit between the two.
