Document Summary:
This Property Tax Diagnostic Manual provides guidance on how to analyze and assess immovable property tax systems, diagnose the strengths and weaknesses of such systems, and develop a property tax intervention strategy where needed. Its higher objective is to support increasingly fair and stable tax systems in low- and middle-income countries, with significant potential for sustainable improvements in achieving key revenue, equity, and efficiency objectives. This Manual focuses specifically on the recurrent, immovable property tax.
Document Details:
The Manual is primarily designed to assist practitioners from governments, development partners, and civil society practitioners to identify, analyze, and develop potential property tax reforms. The Manual lays out an analytical approach that can help identify property tax performance potential, challenges and opportunities, evaluate remedial property tax policy and administrative reform measures, and design a strategic action plan to implement those recommended interventions. A conceptual framework for the property tax, its policy and administration components, and reform strategy options are provided along with numerous examples of international experience.
