Tax relief tied to prices
The head of the Restaurant and Sweets Shop Owners Association, Omar Al-Awwad, said that popular restaurants are exempt from income and sales taxes only if they comply with approved prices and pass the benefit on to consumers; the exemption does not justify raising prices. He pointed to violations in which an item with an approved price of between 4.25 and 5 dinars is sold for 10 dinars, or extra charges—such as one dinar per plate—are added. Some sandwiches, meanwhile, are sold for between 35 and 40 qirsh. The association, the Ministry of Industry and Trade, and the Income and Sales Tax Department monitor restaurants. A restaurant may face consequences for a violation if it continues after being warned.
