Anm.: Satserne angiver den kombinerede statslige og lokale selskabsskattesats.
I flere lande findes flere selskabsskattesatser. For disse lande er den angivne sats den højeste.
I en række af landene – det gælder især Litauen, Malta, Ungarn og Cypern gælder der for visse selskaber en mindre sats. I f.eks. Litauen betaler små selskaber med under 10 ansatte og mindre end LTL 500.000 (ca. € 144.810) i skattepligtig indkomst f.eks. fem pct. i skat. I Malta kan små og mellemstore virksomheder opnå 40 pct. skattenedsættelse, hvis de investerer i nye teknologier og skaber nye jobs. I Ungarn er det visse erhvervsgrupper under betegnelsen entreprenører, der betaler en lidt lavere skattesats. I Estland er der ingen klassisk selskabsbeskatning af overskud, men derimod beskatning af en række udgifter – det gælder f.eks. personalegoder, udbetalte udbytter, repræsentationsudgifter mv. I Litauen introduceredes i 2006 og 2007 “en social skat” på selskabsskattegrundlaget. Den sociale skat var 4 pct. i 2006 og 3 pct. i 2007.
