In Cameroon, social security deductions made by employees are generally not deductible when calculating taxable income. This means that the contributions towards social security programs, such as pension and health insurance, are not subtracted from the gross income of individuals for the purpose of income tax calculation. Consequently, these deductions do not reduce the taxable income and thus do not impact the overall income tax liability of employees in Cameroon.
