# Personal Taxes Integration

***

{% hint style="info" %}
**The following tax integration example is based on the publicly available resource `esx_property`.**

After reviewing and carefully reading this guide, you'll understand how to implement the tax system into other resources as well.

Please note that implementation is only possible in open-source resources - **it's not possible to introduce functional taxation in escrow-protected scripts**.\
In such cases, we recommend contacting the author of the resource and requesting compatibility with our system.
