direct tax

Tax levied (imposed) directly on an individual or organization, in contrast to indirect taxes, levied on goods when they are purchased. Nearly all direct taxes are taxes on income or wealth, such as income tax, capital gain tax, or corporation tax. However, a poll tax is also an example of a direct tax. The opposite of a direct tax is an indirect tax.
