Abstract: This paper explores the impact of FDI inflows on government revenue, notably total non-resource tax revenue and non-resource corporate tax revenue. The analysis covers an unbalanced panel dataset comprising 172 countries (both developed and developing countries) over the period 1980-2013. Empirical results show that the impact of FDI inflows on each of these two types of government revenue depends on the level of FDI inflows, expressed in percentage of host countries' Gross Domestic Product (GDP).
