Finland: Tax measures in draft budget for 2027
The draft budget includes a reduction of the corporate income tax rate from 20% to 18%.
The Ministry of Finance on August 6, 2026, released a draft budget for 2027, incorporating previously approved fiscal consolidation measures, expenditure controls, and targeted investments.
The draft budget includes a reduction of the corporate income tax rate from 20% to 18%, an increase in earned income tax relief, higher alcohol and tobacco taxes, additional defense and R&D funding, and continued efforts to improve public finances while supporting economic growth.
The proposal also provides funding increases for wellbeing services counties, transportation infrastructure projects, and support for Ukraine, while implementing savings measures across government operations and public spending programs.
