On Wednesday June 4, 2025, the Ministry of Finance hosted an informative workshop titled
“Filing Your Income Tax – Step-by-Step Guide,” specifically for civil servants. The session was led by our very own Tax Assessment Officer,
Mr. Marlon Kwidama, who provided clear and practical step-by-step guidance on how to file income taxes correctly.
The Minister of Finance extends sincere thanks to Mr. Kwidama for his willingness to facilitate these sessions and for his engaging delivery.
The workshop was attended by approximately 85 civil servants and proved to be highly interactive, with civil servants gaining valuable insights and the opportunity to ask questions.
The feedback received from participants was overwhelmingly positive, with many expressing appreciation for the clarity and practical nature of the session.
The Ministry of Finance looks forward to welcoming the public to a similar session next week, on June 11, 2025. Unfortunately, registration for this session is already fully booked, underscoring the high level of public interest in tax education.
The Minister of Finance remains committed to continuing these informative sessions for both civil servants and the general public, as part of a broader effort to promote financial literacy and tax compliance.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Minister of Finance, Marinka Gumbs Announces Publication of 2025 Tax TablesPHILIPSBURG, Sint Maarten — June 6, 2025
The Ministry of Finance has officially published the 2025 tax tables, providing taxpayers, employers, and employees with essential guidance for accurate tax calculations, withholdings, and filings.
This publication marks a significant step in enhancing transparency and restoring predictability to the tax system. It allows employers to apply the correct rates, avoiding both over- and under-withholding, and helping employees meet their tax obligations more effectively throughout the year.
While tax tables are ideally published prior to the start of the year, the Ministry had to first address a backlog, resulting from the delayed publication of the 2023 tax tables, which were released in December 2024, and the 2024 tax tables, which followed in March 2025.
With the 2025 tax tables now available, individuals and businesses can verify taxable income to ensure compliance with current tax regulations and facilitate accurate reporting and withholding.
By publishing tax tables for 2023, 2024, and now 2025, the Ministry reaffirms its commitment to closing previous administrative gaps and improving public access to essential tax information.
