Abstract
This paper analyses the developments in labor income taxation in Croatia, Slovenia and Slovakia during the period 2011–2017. While the systems of social insurance contributions in these countries were relatively stable, their personal income taxes have undergone more important changes. Using tax-benefit microsimulation models, we compute average and marginal tax rates for the sample units and assess the impact of tax-benefit systems on income distribution
