This dataset presents information on historical central government revenues for 31 countries in Europe and the Americas for the period from 1800 (or independence) to 2012. The countries included are: Argentina, Australia, Austria, Belgium, Bolivia, Brazil, Canada, Chile, Colombia, Denmark, Ecuador, Finland, France, Germany (West Germany between 1949 and 1990), Ireland, Italy, Japan, Mexico, New Zealand, Norway, Paraguay, Peru, Portugal, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, the Netherlands, the United Kingdom, the United States, Uruguay, and Venezuela. In other words, the dataset includes all South American, North American, and Western European countries with a population of more than one million, plus Australia, New Zealand, Japan, and Mexico. The dataset contains information on the public finances of central governments. To make such information comparable cross-nationally the researchers chose to normalize nominal revenue figures in two ways: (i) as a share of the total budget, and (ii) as a share of total gross domestic product. The total tax revenue of the central state is disaggregated guided by the Government Finance Statistics Manual 2001 of the International Monetary Fund (IMF) which provides a classification of types of revenue, and describes in detail the contents of each classification category. Given the paucity of detailed historical data and the needs of our project, researchers combined some subcategories. First, they were interested in total tax revenue, as well as the shares of total revenue coming from direct and indirect taxes. Further, they measured two sub-categories of direct taxation, namely taxes on property and income. For indirect taxes, they separated excises, consumption, and customs.

In the fiscal year 2023, a total national tax revenue of around 77.4 trillion Japanese yen was reported in Japan. The main sources of national tax revenue were consumption tax, income tax, and corporation tax. Taxes and other government revenue Taxes are the main source of income for the government. They are collected to finance public services, infrastructure, and other government spending. Taxes accounted for around 62 percent of the government’s general account revenue. However, expenditure has exceeded the revenue from tax and other income sources for the past decades. To make up for fiscal deficits, government expenditure is partly financed by debt, such as special deficit-financing bonds and construction bonds. Local governments Taxes in Japan are levied by the central government and local governments. On the local level, taxes are collected on both, the prefectural and municipal level. Total tax revenue in Japan amounted to 122 trillion yen in fiscal 2023. The national tax revenue share in this was roughly 63 percent in the fiscal year 2022.

This is why a part of the national tax revenue is allocated to local governments, in the form of local allocation taxes, local transfer taxes, and special grants to local governments.
