Tax and compliance

Resident treatment: under the IRPS Code, individuals present in Cabo Verde for more than 183 days in a year are tax resident and residents are taxed on all income including outside Cabo Verde (with foreign tax credit mechanics). Non-resident treatment: non-residents are taxed only on Cabo Verde-source income. Assumptions: effective PIT uses the highest published progressive IRPS rate (27.5%); employee social contribution uses the INPS employee rate (8.5%). Confidence: high (primary legal code and social-security authority pages were used).

  • Monthly cost baseline: $854
  • Rent (1BR city center): $423
  • Internet: $43
  • Coworking: Data not published

Method: poor=single-without-rent+1BR outside center+utilities+internet; average=single including rent (published); comfortable=single-without-rent+1BR city-center+utilities+internet. Computed baselines (USD/month): poor=645.0, average=854.0, comfortable=858.0. Source-date: TheLivingCost country page retrieved 2026-02-27 (page does not expose a clear dataset update timestamp). monthly_coworking_usd is null because TheLivingCost does not publish a country-level coworking benchmark and no official national statistical series was located. Confidence: medium (consistent secondary dataset, limited methodology transparency).
