How do taxes work in Cameroon if I’m working remotely for a company Cameroon?

When working remotely in Cameroon for a firm based in Israel, taxes might be tricky, therefore I’ve been told to get a local tax accountant to help me with my taxes.
How do I do this?

The problem with doing business in Cameroon is that the government does not have a single tax rate. There are two main taxes: the income tax (impôt sur la fortune) and the social security tax (impôt social). The income tax is paid by the company, while the social security tax is paid by the employee.
In the case of a company based in Israel, the income tax is calculated on the basis of the company’s fiscal year, which is different from the Cameroonian fiscal year. In Cameroon, the fiscal year is the same as the calendar year, while in Israel, it is the fiscal year that ends in June.
The social security tax is calculated on the basis of the employee’s salary. In Cameroon, the employee is taxed on his salary, while in Israel, the employee is taxed on the amount of his salary that exceeds a certain threshold (the threshold is different for different employees).
Thus, to calculate the taxes for a Cameroonian employee working in Israel, you need to know the Cameroonian fiscal year, the Israeli fiscal year, and the threshold for the employee. The threshold for an employee is not published by the government, and there is no public website that provides it.
To get the information you need, you can contact the tax office of Cameroon.
