Greece: Property Taxes Increase (Retrospectively Legalised Spaces and Constructions); Unpaid Taxes, Huge Debts

According to Keep Talking Greece

"Property owners have to add the legalized square meters to their tax declaration (E9) and be charged with extra taxes and municipality fees. Also affected are owners who legalized illegal constructions"

People can't pay their taxes

"Almost 2.5 million people are unable to pay their taxes. As a result, the new debts created in the first four months of the year came to 4.3 billion euros, or 1.07 billion per month".

To Vima

"Taxpayers have generated, on average, one billion euros of debt each month in 2014 - 66bn euros owed so far",

Lightening of tax burden? Kathimerini.
