Cyprus Tax Changes Agreed

Cyprus government made a big deal. It is with three parties about taxes. The Finance Minister worked hard. Disy, Diko, and Dipa parties agree. This means the government has many votes. The changes will help people with money. They want to start in 2025. A vote is on December 22.

Taxes change before the next vote. The tax system is old. It did not change since 2002. People will not pay tax on more money. This goes from €19,500 to €22,000. Families with kids get more help too. The government will get less tax money.

Many families will save money. A family with two kids can save about €900. Families with more kids save more. The minister said, "We all agree."

But some parties are not happy. Akel, Greens, and Elam feel left out. They say it was too fast. They worry about checks. Akel wants to tax big profits.

Disy party helps the government. This is a surprise. The Finance Committee meets now. Changes are moving fast.

The vote should pass the changes. But people have different ideas. The government will get less money. We will see how they get more. These tax changes are important.
