What this is
In Cameroon, the "encumbrance tax" is a state-levied charge or fee, governed by finance laws pertaining to state-owned property revenue. It is a charge payable by operators and owners of facilities such as service stations (including their fuel dispensers for premium gasoline, diesel, or kerosene) that occupy or obstruct specific public spaces or state-owned areas.
