The Rwandan Government has decided to suspend the increase in land taxes.
This disclosure was made by the country's Minister of Finance and Economic Planning, Dr. Uzziel Ndagijimana, who hinged the decision on the present economic situation occasioned by the COVID 19 pandemic which has negatively affected several taxpayers.
The Minister also stated that the government had extended the tax deadline to allow more citizens the opportunity to pay for their land.
“The cabinet also resolved the deadline is extended from the initial end of March to end of April, next month. This is to make sure that no citizen is left behind during this exercise, he said.
