Definition: Tax Statistical Metadata refers to the structured and detailed information that describes, explains, locates, or otherwise makes it easier to retrieve, use, or manage tax-related data. It includes details about the content, quality, condition, and other characteristics of tax data. Source: International Monetary Fund Source reference: https://www.imf.org/external/pubs/ft/gfs/manual/pdf/all.pdf Additional information: Tax Statistical Metadata is crucial for understanding the data related to taxation. It provides context for data, making it easier to understand and interpret. It includes information about the methods used to collect the data, the date of data collection, the geographic location from which the data was collected, and the accuracy of the data. This metadata can also include information about the legal basis for tax collection, the types of taxes collected, and the entities responsible for tax collection. It is used by tax authorities, researchers, policy makers, and others who need to understand and analyze tax data. Example: For instance, in a dataset about corporate tax rates, the Tax Statistical Metadata might include information about the year the data was collected, the countries included in the dataset, the source of the data, the method used to calculate the tax rates, and any assumptions or limitations of the data. This metadata would help users understand the context of the data, interpret it correctly, and use it appropriately.
