He said, nevertheless, that this tax will not impact the poor who he says usually source their food from small informal vendors who do not pay the tax anyway.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Nevertheless, And\u00fajar said the proposed 18% tax on basic food items and other essential services would disproportionately affect the middle class. He insisted that these tax increases could have been implemented more gradually.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The business leader expressed concern about the impact of the reform on the industrial sector, particularly the elimination of certain incentives for domestic industries and the increase in electricity rates. He warned that these changes could put Dominican companies at a disadvantage compared to international competitors, especially those from Central America and the United States.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Follow the story in Spanish:<br><a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=zZt4gCnxTZc\">Entre Dos <\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>17 October 2024<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Euri And\u00fajar, president of the National Association of Herrera Enterprises and Industries (ANEIH), has called on the government to foster tax reform that simplifies and makes it easy for businesses of all sizes to pay taxes.
