The discounts
range from 10 to 25 percent, depending on the classification of the property,
residential, commercial, etc., and payment method (online or cash). The
government also said it will write off fines incurred as a result of delayed
payment of property tax for years if the value of the original tax is paid
before June 30, 2022.
Law-abiding taxpayers will also have access to such
discounts at their next tax payment in 2023. Also, tenants of property owned by
municipalities and the Greater Amman Municipality are offered a 25 percent
discount on unpaid rents if they pay off rent arrears by June 30, 2022.
