IVORY COAST: A new tax on airline tickets revolt and … amuses the net surfers.
#TaxeChallenge is the sharp word by which Ivorian cetizens express their dissatisfaction with the introduction by the Ivorian government of a new tax on airline tickets. And we can not say that they did not explode.
On Wednesday, January 17, 2018, at the end of the Council of Ministers, the government decided to introduce a new tax on airline tickets for international flights to or from Côte d’Ivoire. “Domestic flights are not affected by these taxes” of between 4000 and 5000 F CFA, said Bruno Nabagne Koné, the Minister of Communication, Digital Economy and Post by spokesmen of the government. He added that “This tax was introduced to cope with the increase in security costs related to the” fight against terrorism “”
