Germany is the country in the European Union which collects the greatest tax revenues each year, with Europe's largest economy collecting almost 1.6 trillion euros in taxes and social security contributions in 2022. France and Italy are the second and third largest tax collectors in terms of revenues in the EU, however, the gap between the two countries had been growing since 2009, as the stagnation of the Italian economy in the past 15 years has limited increases in tax revenues.
