A direct tax is one which is collected directly by government from the persons (legal or natural) on which it is levied. Examples include income tax and corporate taxes. It contrasts with an indirect tax (such as sales tax or Value Added Tax (VAT)), which are collected by intermediaries and the proceeds passed on to government.
