Taxes in the canton of Jura
Jura is Switzerland’s youngest canton — and one of the most expensive for income tax: high schedules and high municipal multipliers add up to a burden that only Neuchâtel regularly exceeds. A structural peculiarity: the canton runs separate schedules for single people, married couples and single parents, instead of working with a splitting. Delémont, as the capital, is representative of the cantonal level.
