Thanks Red - so the 1st figure is the value of the property in LE and the 2nd figure is the tax to be paid in LE on that property. How does the government know how much your property is worth?

Hi Red - another question - does this apply to property in Sinai and it states a levy of 10% of the rental value. Does this mean you still pay the property tax and if you rent you then pay an extra 10% of the rental value on top of the property tax as well??

Thanks

Alison

The Egyptian government will create a committee in each governrate in A.R.E and they will put the price at the market in that moment then they will take the taxs after they will compare with the prices above

How can this work if there in no official record of who owns an apartment if it is not registered. This is the main reason Egyptians do not register since it keeps them from being "known" as property owners.

Dear All,

When it comes to Property Tax "new law" please be informed that it applies only on properties which exceed EGP 400,000.00 in value, and is estimated as 14% of the average rental income per annum.

Where is the legal thread by the way?!!

All the best,

Zeiad Yehia

How will the rental income be estimated, and who will do it.

How will the local government even know about the property if it is not registered.

How will anyone know how the property cost to decide if it above the threshold for value (400,000 EGP).
