From Friday 4 August, a form will be available for submitting objections to an exemption from the Business Rates by businesses that have increased full-time jobs by at least 25%.
In particular, as noted in a relevant announcement of the Ministry of Labour and Social Security from Friday, will be available in the environment of P.S. ERGANI, a form for the submission of objections regarding the exemption from the Business Tax for businesses which, in the last tax year, have increase the number of full-time jobs by at least 25% compared to the previous year, and have not received an email from ADSE informing them of this by email, in accordance with the provisions of paragraph 3 of No.4 of KYA A.1040/31.03.2023 (Government Gazette B'2122).
The objection submitted concerns the correctness of the full-time employment data kept in the ERGANI system and requires a check of these data and the submission of an objection only in cases where the actual full-time employment data do not correspond to those kept in the ERGANI system.
The notice also states that before completing and submitting an objection, interested parties should refer to the detailed instructions that will be available on the P.S. ERGANI notice board.
