Direct taxes are levied directly on individuals or organizations, such as income tax and corporate tax, meaning the taxpayer bears the burden of the tax. Indirect taxes, on the other hand, are imposed on goods and services, like sales tax and value-added tax (VAT), and are collected by intermediaries (like retailers) who then remit the tax to the government. Indirect taxes can be passed on to consumers, making them less visible in the final price of goods or services. Both tax structures play crucial roles in government revenue generation and economic policy.
