Finance Ministry to select winning company to digitize tax authority mid-December

The Finance Ministry will reportedly select the winning company in its tender to digitize the Tax Authority by mid-December. Five unnamed companies are competing in the tender. Meanwhile, Finance Minister Mohamed Maait issued yesterday a decision requiring shops to begin using a tool linking its business records with the Tax Authority, according to Al Shorouk. The decisions are part of the government’s plan to transition towards a cashless economy — which is at the heart of the economic reform agenda.
