Cambodia: The government has waived the 5% tax on domestic cement products from January 2025 to December 2026 to support the local cement industry, as announced by the Ministry of Economy and Finance.
The exemption reportedly aims to alleviate financial burden on the industry and promote growth. Local cement companies must comply with obligations including tax filings, maintaining comprehensive records and submitting annual reports detailing production, costs and social initiatives.
To date, Cambodia’s cement industry has attracted over US$1.2bn in investments, creating more than 2700 jobs and ‘significantly’ contributing to the economy, according to Construction & Property news.
