# Taxes

> View your tax overview and set your tax rates

The alliance taxes your in-game income. The bot tracks what you pay and what the alliance grants you. You can view your position and set your own rates.

## View your overview

Run `/taxes overview`. The bot shows:

* **Taxes Paid**: what you have paid the alliance.
* **Grants Received**: what the alliance has given you.
* **Net**: taxes minus grants.
* **Holdings Value**: your deposits at market prices.
* **Tax Rates**: your money percent and resource percent.
* **Total Balance**: net plus holdings.

Set `privacy_mode` to true to keep the reply visible only to you. Bankers and Econ staff can view other members with the `user` option.

## Set your rates

Run `/taxes set` with `money_tax` and `resource_tax`. Both are percentages from 5 to 100. The bot assigns the matching in-game tax bracket automatically.

Rules:

* Only full members can set their own rates. Trainees cannot.
* If your tax balance is negative, you can only raise your rates. Contact a banker if you need an adjustment.
* Members on 5/5 taxes are not eligible for grants. Members not on 100/100 taxes get a warning before refills.

## Banker tools

* `/taxes set user:@member` sets rates for another member. Add `force:true` for a nation outside the alliance; the bot then reminds you to apply the rate in game.
* `/taxes add-granted user:@member amount:<dollars>` adjusts a member's granted total. Use a negative amount to subtract.
* `/taxes enabled value:<true/false>` toggles tax collection tracking.
* `/taxes global-set` applies one rate to every bracket, for example in wartime. Use `restore:true` to put each bracket back to its original rates. The bot walks you through the collection on/off steps.
* `/taxes export sheet_id:<sheet>` writes every member's tax record to a Google Sheet.
* `/taxes assign-trainees` puts every trainee into the correct trainee tax bracket based on their time in the alliance.
