Important Financial Considerations
The top tax rate in Australia is 45%.
Players in Australia have gross contracts but are paid on a net basis,
meaning taxes are deducted from their salary before payment.
Typically, players receive a refund on some taxes paid when they
submit their Tax Return at the end of the financial year.
The risk of late or missed salary payments is low, as players usually
receive their salaries on time each month.
The A-League represents a great opportunity for a player to
pursue a stable career in a high-quality environment. The
quality of the coaching, players and facilities continues to
improve, meaning that players can grow as footballers and
have a great life experience in any number of wonderful
Australian cities. International players can build great
careers that can be rewarding on many levels.
