# King Charles has become the first monarch to reveal his tax bill, disclosing figures that show he paid the equivalent of 280-million-rand in tax for 2024 and ’25. That places him among the top-100 UK taxpayers. The change in publishing details of the king’s personal tax comes after calls for greater transparency around royal finances, following scandals surrounding Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor. MPs raised concerns about a lack of accountability and this shift in approach in the annual palace accounts seems to reflect the public mood for more openness.
