As mentioned in our previous article on this subject, the Economic Arrangement Bill (Legislative Amendments to Implement the 2017-2018 State Budget) 5776-2016, was published by the Israeli government on December 29, 2016.

This Bill included a tax to be imposed on anyone who owns 3 apartments and more, at a maximum amount of NIS 18,000 tax per year, per apartment.

The Israeli Tax Authority (ITA) has again postponed the deadline for reporting and payment under this new Bill and it is now until September 1, 2017.
 
This means that owners of three or more apartments have until September 1, 2017, to submit a declaration to the Tax Authority with details of their assets and pay the tax according to the provisions of the law.
