Similarly, the personal income tax is also being reduced by the Royal Decree No. 575 from the statutory progressive rates of 5% - 37% to the temporary rates of 0% - 35% set to expire on 31 December 2014.

On 16 September 2014, the new Cabinet approved two draft royal decrees to extend the reduced rates of corporate and personal income tax for another year.

These two draft decrees will then be presented to the King for signature.
