The state collected EGP 3.5 bn from property transfer taxes in the last fiscal year \u2014 a figure considered low compared to the size of the real estate market. This reflects the large number of citizens avoiding tax settlement due to the high tax rates applied to multiple property sales without clear commercial intent.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>Government expectations: <\/strong>Implementing the new tax system \u2014 combined with expanding the scope of the tax \u2014 could generate bns of EGP in additional revenue to the state coffers, according to our source.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>As things stand:<\/strong> The current law imposes a 2.5% tax on the total value of any sale of built property or land designated for construction \u2014 excluding villages. This applies regardless of whether the transaction involves an entire property, a part of it, or a single unit, and whether or not the property is built on land owned by the taxpayer. The tax also applies whether the contract is officially registered or not. The law exempts properties transferred as in-kind shares in the capital of joint-stock companies, provided that the shareholder does not sell the corresponding shares for five years.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>When can we expect these amendments to see the light? <\/strong>The amendments are still being studied, with authorities assessing their financial and legislative impact. Once the studies are completed and approved, the amendments will go through the legislative cycle, likely next year.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>REMEMBER-<\/strong> The government is looking to <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/enterprise.news\/egypt\/en\/news\/story\/a7fe1f05-c4ce-4fe8-8fac-edb4ffb37f9c\/reforms-to-nearly-double-tax-revenues-in-fy-2025-2026\" style=\"\" rel=\"noopener\">secure<\/a> an additional EGP 195.2 bn in tax revenues \u2014 equivalent to 0.98% of GDP \u2014 in FY 2025-26 through a bundle of tax reforms.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The proposed amendment aims to resolve a significant number of property transfer tax disputes and claims, while also improving tax revenue<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":676171,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"newspack_ads_suppress_ads":false,"newspack_popups_has_disabled_popups":false,"newspack_sponsor_sponsorship_scope":"","newspack_sponsor_native_byline_display":"inherit","newspack_sponsor_native_category_display":"inherit","newspack_sponsor_underwriter_style":"inherit","newspack_sponsor_underwriter_placement":"inherit","ep_exclude_from_search":false,"_primary_brand":0,"newspack_featured_image_position":"","newspack_post_subtitle":"","newspack_article_summary_title":"Overview:","newspack_article_summary":"","newspack_hide_updated_date":false,"newspack_show_updated_date":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[7382],"tags":[72,276,83,69],"brand":[],"newspack_spnsrs_tax":[],"class_list":["post-676170","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-tax","tag-enterpriseam","tag-finance-ministry","tag-real-estate","tag-tax","wpautop","entry"],"acf":{"mongo_id":"951f3898-1bb2-4b4b-b355-349230226a2a","order":"5","is_powered_by":false,"story_type":"1","photo_url":"https:\/\/ent.news\/2025\/11\/1565.jpg","photo_position":"above","homepage_title":"","full_issue_title":"FinMin considers flat 2.5% rate on first four property transfers","related_issue":[676162],"teaser":"The proposed amendment aims to resolve a significant number of property transfer tax disputes and claims, while also improving tax revenue","voice_url":"https:\/\/s3.us-east-1.amazonaws.com\/ent.news\/audio\/2025\/11\/.2931c7f4-bf96-4842-85d1-d0f0c3a1a5e0.mp3"},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v27.1 (Yoast SEO v27.1.1) -
