11 December 2024 – On 3 December 2024, the Egyptian President issued Law No. 160 of 2024, which renewed the possibility of resolving tax disputes between the Egyptian Tax Authority and taxpayers through Dispute Resolving Committees.
The Dispute Resolving Committees were established by the Egyptian Ministry of Finance and are responsible for reviewing requests submitted by taxpayers to settle tax disputes that are being addressed in Egyptian courts or tax appeal committees.
As of 4 December 2024, the tenure of these committees has been extended until the end of June 2025.
Deloitte’s view
The further extension of the law offers an opportunity for Egyptian taxpayers to comply with rules and regulations and reflects Egypt's commitment to reducing tax burdens, easing tax compliance, and streamlining tax policies and procedures in the country.
