German Increment Value Duty faces delays in Reichstag
A report from Continental Correspondence details Germany’s proposed Increment Value Duty taxing land transfer gains. The plan ties tax to the gap between sale price and prior purchase, allows deductions for improvements, and sets rates up to 13 percent with a 4 percent interest component. Revenue projections run to about two million pounds, with municipal rights to add local levies and protections for cities already using similar taxes.
