Taliban Cut Corporate and Private Hospital Tax Rate to 10 Percent

DID Press: Taliban administration has announced a reduction in taxes across four economic sectors, lowering the income tax rate for companies and private hospitals to 10 percent, excluding mining companies.

Abdul Salam Hanafi, the Taliban’s deputy prime minister for administrative affairs, said the new tax reduction package was introduced to support economic activities, encourage investment, and reduce financial pressure on private-sector businesses.

According to Hanafi, the tax cuts apply to legal entities, individuals, property transfers, and fuel-related sectors.

He added that income taxes on companies and private hospitals have been reduced to 10 percent, while firms involved in mineral extraction remain excluded from the measure.

Hanafi said the policy is part of efforts to improve the business environment, increase private-sector participation, and strengthen investment opportunities in Afghanistan.

He expressed hope that the move would contribute to economic growth and create more opportunities for domestic investors.
