Hey,

I refunded the tax, but please keep the following in mind:

- Try not to do missions during the Tax time
- Tax is RP based. If you have no RP, the Tax will be a lot higher.  
See t he Tax guide page:

> **Private Structure Tax** : ( **Ship Tax** + Player **Bank** Credits) / RP

As mentioned in other posts, we will change the tax system though.
