Finance Minister Mohamed Maait decided on Friday to appoint Reda Abdel Kader Gharib as the head of the Egyptian Tax Authority.

The authority said in a statement that the minister’s decision came after a presidential decree no. 357/2021 on extending the service of Abdel Kader for one year as of July 30, 2021.

The minister directed the authority’s chief to continue efforts aimed to achieve a leap in the tax revenues and create a just atmosphere for all those who deal with the authority as well as reducing the rates of tax evasion.
