The Egyptian Parliament introduced Law No. 160 of 2024 on 3 December 2024, ensuring the continued operation of the Dispute Resolution Committee (DRC), which will process ongoing cases and accept new dispute applications until 30 June 2025.
The new law replaces Law No. 79 of 2016 for resolving tax disputes via the Dispute Resolution Committee (DRC). However, it maintains the scope established under Law No. 79 of 2016 and its amendments, covering tax and customs disputes between the Egyptian Tax Authority and taxpayers at both the court and appeal committee levels.
This law came into effect on 4 December 2024.
