Submission Mechanism

Those who took over the mandate of 2010-2016 and onwards benefit from this service.

The end-of-service compensation for the Mayor is calculated as follows:

• 2010-2016: twice the minimum wage for each actual year of service: 675,000 * 2 * 6 = 8,100,000 LL.
• from 2016 onwards: 3 times the minimum wage for each actual year of service: 675,000 * 3 * 6 = 12,150,000 LBP.
• The fraction of the year is calculated on a monthly basis, and the fraction of the month is a full month.

• That the mayor submit his request personally, or delegate someone else under an official power of attorney issued by the notary public department.
• That the Mukhtar has not been sentenced to any crime stipulated in Articles 18 and/or 21 of the Mukhtars Law.
• For deceased mayors, the same conditions apply as in the case of a death assistance request.

It is paid in full at the request of the mayor or the beneficiary on his behalf incase of:

• Termination of term (not elected for a new term)
• Death
• Resignation
• Four consecutive states passed

It is calculated at the request of the mayor as follows:

• 25% for the first term in the event that he is re-elected for a second term, and the mayor wants to withdraw his compensation before the end of the second term.
• 50% for the first and second terms in case he was re-elected for a third term, and the mayor wanted to withdraw his compensation before the end of the third term.
• 75% of the three states in the event that he is re-elected for a fourth term, and the mayor wanted to withdraw his compensation before the end of the fourth term.
• In the event that the mayor is re-elected for a fifth consecutive term or more, he shall be paid for each year of the fifth term and the one that follows an additional amount equal to 50% of the basic amount.

Example: Mukhtar took over a full term 2010-2016 and was elected for a second term in the 2016-2022 term, and he applied for end-of-service compensation for the first term, and he is still exercising his duties to date, so he is only entitled to 25% of the value of the amount due for the 2010-2016 cycle, i.e. 8,100,000 * 25% = 2,025,000 LBP.
