daň

Money or goods collected by a government (or an entity to whom the government has delegated this power, e.g. in tax farming) to fund itself and its services, for example by levying a charge on income, purchases (sales), property or harvest, other than that money which is collected by the government in exchange for specific goods (e.g. the purchase of surplus vehicles).

How to use

Feminine noun ending in a soft consonant, declined according to the dlaň pattern (genitive singular dane, nominative plural dane, genitive plural daní). It designates mandatory state taxation. It governs the preposition z + genitive specifying the tax type (daň z príjmu = income tax, daň z pridanej hodnoty / DPH = VAT).
