Our source exclusively obtained the tax proposal, which has been officially implemented with 0% tax on essentials, excluding government transfers and development projects. This comes after MPs repeatedly denied imposing taxes on citizens while confirming the proposal through Sada.
According to the proposal:
- 7% tax on sugar for all purposes, non-food raw materials, iron and steel, soap production, tea, coffee, cocoa, spices, rice, fruits and vegetables, and sugar for consumption.
- 12% tax on food products, cleaning materials, soaps, bleaches, disinfectants, baby diapers, cosmetics, books and stationery, paper, car spare parts, and car accessories.
- 25% tax on nuts, chocolate, fish, clothing, shoes, and furniture.
- 15% tax on the aviation sector and services.
- 25% tax on home appliances.
- 25% tax on cars under 20 horsepower, 30% on cars 20–30 HP, and 35% on cars over 30 HP.
- 35% tax on jewelry, gold, and precious metals, as well as pet food.
- 40% tax on tobacco and cigarettes.
This tax framework focuses primarily on luxury goods, leaving essentials largely untaxed.
