Agency offers to make recycling fee equal for all vehicles
Ministry of Ecology and Natural Resources of Ukraine developed draft law "On Amendments to the Tax Code of Ukraine (concerning abolition of the coefficients applicable to environmental tax rates for recycling of vehicles out of service)", whereby Recycling fee shall be the same for all cars, RBC-Ukraine reports.
The draft law proposes to cancel the correction coefficients to the basic rate of tax on disposal of vehicles (5,500 UAH for passenger cars and 11,000 UAH for other motor vehicles).
In addition, two other draft laws propose supplementing the law on environmental protection with an item whereby the Fund for Environmental Protection will receive 100% of utilization tax.
The bill also proposes to exclude from the law on recycling tax mandatory condition for vehicles disassembly points to have environmental management system under ISO 1400 or similar national standards.
