Iraqi government moves to impose taxes on social media sites
9/16/2024
Financial expert Nabil Al-Marsoumi revealed on Monday that the Iraqi government is planning to impose taxes on social media sites in Iraq, among the people covered by these taxes.
Al-Marsoumi told Shafaq News Agency, "The Iraqi government is studying a proposal to impose taxes on content creators on social media sites in the country, not users of those sites. This process came in order to enhance non-oil revenues, especially in light of the decline in oil prices and the deterioration in oil revenues. These taxes will provide good financial revenues, and for this reason the percentage will be 15% of the profits of content creators, especially since some of their profits are estimated in the millions on a daily basis."
He added, "This decision does not require a vote by the House of Representatives, as this is a decision within the authority of the Council of Ministers to expand the tax base, and does not require a law, but it is still under study, and may come into effect at the beginning of next year, as it requires months of work and study."
