A direct tax is generally a tax paid directly to the government by the person on whom it is imposed.
In a general sense, a direct tax is one imposed upon an individual person (juristic or natural) or property (i.e. real and personal property, livestock, crops, wages, etc.) as distinct from a tax imposed upon a transaction.
