Authorities suspend draft decree for consultation

The economic entities in Lebanon expressed their opposition to the draft amended decree imposing fees on goods and products, which raises the fee rate to approximately 3% of the value of the products, compared to the current decree that sets it between 0.1% and 0.3%. They emphasized that imposing additional fees amid difficult economic conditions exacerbates the living burdens and hinders economic recovery, especially after the repercussions of the war and rising gasoline prices. The entities stressed that the priority now is to revitalize the economy and support production, not to impose additional taxes. Instead, they proposed enhancing tax collection efficiency, combating tax evasion, and exploring other options to increase revenues. They also called on the government to withdraw the draft decree to allow for further dialogue and to find sustainable solutions to the waste management issue without placing extra burdens on citizens and factories.
