Updated tax data for 2017 and 2018 are now available for Benin, Burkina Faso and Cote d'Ivoire.
In Benin, the latest finance acts have not changed the mining taxation (Act No. 2016-33 of 26 December 2016 and Act No. 2017-040 of 29 December 2017). Burkina Faso has adopted a new general tax code (Act No. 058-2017/AN of 20 December 2017). In addition, the amounts of the fees and the annual ground fees have been modified by decree (Decree No. 2017-0023/PRES/PM/MEMC/MINEFID of 23 January 2017). In Cote d'Ivoire, the conditions for deductibility of interest have been tightened (Act No. 2017-870 of 27 December 2017).
