- Egypt’s Ministry of Finance launched a second tax facilitation package to simplify tax procedures, expand the tax base, and build trust with taxpayers and investors.
- The package introduces incentives like a White List for compliant taxpayers, an Excellence Card for priority services, and faster VAT refunds for White List members.
- VAT refund procedures are being streamlined, with refunds for White List members processed within one week; VAT refunds increased by 151% to EGP 7.2 billion in FY 2024/2025.
- New VAT measures include removing VAT on transit goods, reducing VAT on medical devices from 14% to 5%, exempting dialysis machine components, and extending VAT suspension on certain equipment to four years.
