Once a secret Taliban was operational. Now it’s a friendly taxi.

He Taxi, a beard, a beard, black-mixed Talib, a mind that calculates a computed accountant from a computer, the mindless, black salmon.

As director of the Taliban’s taxpayers’ services, Abdul Qahar Ghorbandi has an impossible task to increase income for the government of a unhappy, isolated nation.

From a large table next to a black and white Taliban flag, Mr. Ghorbandi crawls hundreds of Afghan taxpayers every week. Make sure they are separated by income documents and fist tax forms to fill.

Teachers, money modifier, trucks, wedding planners, groceries and others, discussed the target corridors of the tax building, discussing tax buildings with peking in computer terminals.

Taliban, in 2021, wanted to increase the tax collection after a serious economic contraction watching them. The authoritarian regime complained of sanctions on strict restrictions for partially women and girls.

U.S. assistance that has been dramatically reduced since 2021, the President can be eliminated under the budget of the Trump. This help went to the United International and NGOs working in Afghanistan, not the Taliban government.

Now with the power of Taliban, former partisan fighters must work as a bureaucrat. At the tax department of 280 people, the Taliban is working with the employees of the United States, which is supported by the United States.

“There are bearded people in the same table, bearded people, people with the suits,” Mohammad Walid Memca, Press Secretary of the Ministry of Finance.

The tax man himself, Mr. Ghorbandi, said that there is a secret operation for the Taliban in Kabul before an official.

Saying that there is a master’s degree in computer science, Mr. Ghorbandi, a tax administration that turned from English to Pashto and Dari, leads the computer system. Hired experts to modernize the control.

He tried to instill his transparency culture, said that the beef kebabs and rice took a break for dinner. Its employees are not allowed to control the cash. Taxpayers take their forms to the government employee and pay taxes there.

In the absence of his desk, when he signed the remicks of the hustling and outside, he visited the various parts of the department and asked taxpayers that he could make this process faster.

International observers say that the Taliban reduced the tax corruption The cranism, which Afghans, said in simplification the process of collecting taxes, said that the United States has expanded under the alphanumeric government.

Although many affiliated Afghans flee taxes once taxes, Mr. Ghorbandi also stressed that the government was not free. He said he paid more than 30,000 Afghans or more than $ 400 per month.

However, it is open and efficiently, although it is still a tax management, not every taxpayer is satisfied.

Shamsurahman Shams, who showing a day late last year, had a beef with a tax man. According to him, two private schools did not make a profit in the last three years – and carry a plastic folder filled with documents to prove it. Again, he was estimated at 500,000 Afghans or $ 7,350 and taxes.

Inspirational with a department’s employee showing the man showing the man, was engaged in a civilian discussion. There was no resolution. Were not returning later to restore the talks.

Although it is not a result, Mr. Shams admitted that the new process is more transparent than the previous system. “At least he listened to me,” he said.

During the war, Taliban fled to a profitable tax system that holds customs duties, cargo transportation and local taxes in areas where they controlled. Also, millions of articles are banned in “Uşar” – “Uşar” – “Uşhar” in the farmers “Uşar” – Pashhash production.

In 2023, the Taliban government collected about $ 3 billion, about $ 3 billion, about $ 3 billion, 15.5 percent of the total domestic product. (Comparable ratio in the United States was 25.2 percent). The biggest source for the Taliban was not the so-called Nontax is coming The World Bank reports that customs duties, mining revenues, telecom licenses, charges, payments, passports and visas for passports and visas. This income increased by 27 percent compared to the same period last year in the first half of last year.

Half of government revenues and a total of 26 percent on war and military programs last year, according to international observers, most of those in education for boys.

Mr Ghorbandi said he was not preparing to punish the tax system. Generous freedoms means that the most common Afghans are not paying income taxes. The annual sales of annual sales are free of annual sales between two million or about $ 29,500.

This amount saves profitable merchants only 0.3 percent, the American conservatives are definitely taxable.

There has been no cash for taxpayers or pony in time. However, ScoffLaws can go to business licenses and the banking system.

“We are human,” said Mr. Ghorbandi. “We do not want to put cargo to our people.”

He said the Press Secretary of the Ministry of Finance Hajmal Hajmal said that the last goal is to eliminate all income taxes.

“This is a direct order from our supreme leader,” Mr.Man. “He said: ‘I need a Afghanistan free of charge.” “Mr. Mighty Sheikh Haibatullah Akhundzada referred to the Emir and the President of the Taliban.

Another direct order has been a direct order from Sheikh Haibatullah The fragmentation of women’s rights and wider restrictions on civil liberties for all Afghans. Women are prohibited to cover any significant distance without a male relative and have to cover all their bodies and faces to the public. A woman’s voice is on the edge of her house forbidden.

A surprising feature of 15 parts of the tax department in Kabul is the ability to see the rooms in the rooms where female taxpayers are stuck with men.

Lida, who worked for a private school, sat next to a bearded aspirant while considering tax status on a computer. He said no one talked about the gift of a male man with a male officer.

Under the previous government, Ms. Ismayeli did not know that the taxes went to the government or the employee posited.

“The system is better now – it’s fairer,” he said.

A dark hallway, Mohammad Taqi Irfani, a money changer, hugged a computer screen with a tax worker. Mr. Irfani has resigned to $ 73,500 worth of taxes worth 73,500 Afghan or about $ 1,080.

He said he didn’t enjoy paying taxes – who is it? – However, his tax burden was explained clearly and his work accounts were not questioned. Under America’s supportive government, the tax collected came to his office and bribed his bribe.

“They just enjoyed money for themselves,” he said. “So far, nobody has asked me to bribe from me.”
