Baghdad, Iraq- Prime Minister Mohammed S. Al-Sudani chaired a meeting of the High Committee for Tax Reform on Wednesday, where he introduced the Digital Tax Inquiry Service as part of the Ur e-Services Platform.
This new service allows individuals, businesses, and companies to check their tax status electronically with greater speed, accuracy, and transparency. It also resolves issues related to name duplication, a common challenge in the verification process, making tax compliance more efficient.
During the meeting, officials reviewed the new Income Tax Law, which was recently approved by the Council of Ministers and is now under review by the Council of State before being submitted to Parliament. The law is designed to align with international standards, foster a business-friendly environment, and attract investment to stimulate economic growth.
The committee also discussed expanding income tax applications and implementing reforms to simplify tax compliance and enhance financial management. These efforts are part of Iraq’s broader strategy to modernize its financial system and improve economic governance.
