About 18% of employed persons in the country receive their salaries undeclared.
According to a study by a job market portal there has been a 7% reduction in the number of persons working in Latvia who receive their salaries unofficially. Nevertheless, there are still 18% of employed persons in the country who receive their salaries ‘under the table’, and thus no taxes and social security contributions are being paid.
