This will probably upset people who got stuck for hours at the mecanique center and Nefaa, but it’s definitely good news to those who still didn’t pay their outstanding fees including myself!
Interior Minister Marwan Charbel said Friday that he has extended the year-end deadline so that more people could benefit from a 90 percent reduction on outstanding vehicle fees.
“We have extended the grace period for people to pay their outstanding vehicle fees for two months,” Charbel told Voice of Lebanon Radio Station. Source
I don’t get it. Don’t these 90% reductions on mecanique and other outstanding municipality taxes give everybody an incentive not to pay what is due and just wait for the end of the year ? Let aside the obvious clusterfuck this causes at nefaa and other places where people rush to make their end of year payments, I wonder what financially sound mind came up with this plan in the first place ?!
