Al-Obaidi told Al-Iqtisad News, “There are more than 8 million economically active people working in the private sector, and based on the average monthly income being around 600 thousand dinars, the value of the revenues collected for people in the private sector amounts to about 4 trillion Iraqi dinars, taking an average of the income tax rate.” The monthly rate is 7%.

He pointed out that the value of the monthly tax that is supposed to be paid by economically active people in the private sector is approximately 280 billion Iraqi dinars, while the annual tax is approximately 3.5 trillion Iraqi dinars.

This does not include the income tax imposed on employees in the public sector and salaries amounting to 40 trillion dinars annually, with a tax rate of 7%, so it will be The amount of income tax from public sector employees is 3 trillion dinars.

He stressed that unfortunately there is no clear data on the amount of tax that is supposed to be achieved compared to what is achieved, but the tax alone is capable of generating revenues of a minimum value of 10 trillion dinars annually, and it may reach 15 trillion dinars.

"RV UPDATE" BY PIMPY, 12 MAY

 Pimpy 

 Question: "Why are you investing in the Iraqi dinar?" 

 Because I think it's going to change in value and I can benefit from it.

 Let's hope it [ascension to full WTO member] happens quickly but it's not going to be done by [the end of] 2024.

There are a ton of reforms especially in the banking sector.  They're getting there but they're not 100% there yet as far as confidence in the currency.   Nobody has confidence in it besides those who are invested in it.  It's not that they have confidence in Iraqi dinar, they're hoping there's a big difference..

.There's years and years of history shows you Iraq constantly screws up and ends up back on square one.  You can't blame people for being negative. IMO Iraq has taken all the steps necessary to get there but they're not there yet.  Give it time...
