International Fiscal Association

The International Fiscal Association (IFA) was established in 1938 with its headquarters in the Netherlands. It is the only non-governmental and non-sectoral international organisation dealing with fiscal matters.
Its objects are the study and advancement of international and comparative law in regard to public finance, specifically international and comparative fiscal law and the financial and economic aspects of taxation.
IFA seeks to achieve these objects through its annual Congresses and the scientific publications relating thereto as well as through scientific research. Although the operations of the IFA are essentially scientific in character, the subjects selected take account of current fiscal developments and changes in local legislation.
Membership of IFA now stands at nearly 11,000 from 94 countries. In 51 countries IFA members have established IFA Branches. Direct membership is possible in countries where there is as yet no IFA Branch.
Along with the increasing internationalization of the world's economies, international tax issues have become more numerous and of greater importance. Since the end of the second World War IFA has played an essential role both in the development of certain principles of international taxation and in providing possible solutions to problems arising in their practical implementation. It has been able to do so because its membership consists of high level representatives from both the private and the public sectors, including the Courts, Universities and international governmental and non-governmental organizations and because the Association has maintained over the years high standards in its debates and conclusions. Thus IFA has offered the necessary forum to experts belonging to different sectors of society, where opinions on topics of international taxation can be exchanged with respect for each other's background and responsibilities.

Egypt Tax

Egypt is one of the most powerful forces in the Arab World, having a highly developed economic and social structure, and abundant sources of labor.
Egypt is currently implementing a free market policy including lifting restrictions on imports, lowering customs duties and floating the Egyptian pound.
The Government offers reduced import duties in order to encourage foreign investment, particularly in projects that contribute to the earning of foreign currency and to reducing the country’s reliance on imports.
Non-Egyptian nationals, whether natural or juristic, may engage in commercial, industrial and agricultural service activities. There is no restriction on foreign participation in Egyptian Corporations. As a general rule, the law does not allow a non-Egyptian to participate in an agency or in importing activities.
On 9th of June 2005, the Egyptian President approved the issuance of the Income Tax Law No. 91. The effective date of applying the Law is 10th of June 2005. The law aims to distribute the tax burden in a fair manner, reduce tax rates and develop the Tax Authority Human Resources. Also, the Law aims to encourage the mutual trust principle between taxpayers and tax authority, which will widen the tax community.
