Eurofast Macedonia

After 10 years of a flat personal income tax rate of 10% in the FYR Macedonia, the Ministry of Finance introduced a progressive personal taxation rate (Law on Personal Income Tax), effective January 1 2019. Aimed at the creation of a fairer tax system, the new provisions result in the following changes for companies doing business in the country.

In 2009, as an anti-crisis measure, the FYR Macedonian government introduced the possibility to apply for the preferential VAT rate of 5% on the first sale of residential buildings. While initially planned to be in force until the end of 2011, the application period has already been extended twice.
