Tax to be imposed under one of two categories:<\/b> According to the sources, the tax will be imposed and collected separately on two types of land. The first is land that has seen its output increase by 30% as a result of irrigation projects. Rent prices on these land plots will be reassessed as part of the appraisal process, and any changes will be implemented as of 1 August 2020. The tax rate will remain unchanged at 14% of the land\u2019s rent value, the sources stressed. The second category is land where there are no irrigation projects. Rent on these plots will remain unchanged, and the tax rate will remain fixed at EGP 200-300 per feddan.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
