Hi
Yes you do need to pay a property tax from the time you take ownership of the property
Also you need to submit a new property tax declaration form to the tax office
I have just completed this with my solicitor and the total cost to resubmit the declaration and the costs is 500 le

I hope that helps
Mick

 

From what I know, property tax in Egypt, including in Hurghada, is mandatory for all residential properties, and it must be paid annually. The process involves registering your property with the local tax authority, after which you receive an annual payment notice.
