B 25-0999 District of Columbia · 25th Council Period (2023-2024)

Personal Property Tax Simplification Amendment Act of 2024

This bill modifies the District of Columbia's personal property tax by raising the exemption threshold for business assets from $225,000 to $325,000 and linking future increases to inflation. It also removes the requirement for businesses with assets below this new threshold to file a tax return, reducing administrative work for small companies. The tax rate itself remains $3.40 per $100 of taxable value, but the amount subject to tax will only include property worth more than the adjusted exemption limit. These changes aim to simplify the filing process and lower costs for businesses while ensuring the tax exemption keeps pace with rising prices.
