Greek Tax Bill Proposals Spark Public Backlash Over Housing and Police Compensation
Greece’s proposed tax bill has ignited public outcry over various sections, particularly regarding housing and police compensation. The measure defining a three-year vacancy for income tax exemptions on rentals has faced criticism, as does the ban on new Airbnb licenses in saturated markets. Additionally, a significant increase in accommodation taxes, especially for Airbnb, has been deemed unjust. Law enforcement unions are also challenging a modest increase in night shift compensation, arguing it fails to address long-standing issues. Calls for reforms and exemptions for individuals with disabilities in tax deadlines have emerged amidst these controversies.
