Description topics
- Environmental tax revenues
- Revenues of taxes that aim to reduce environmentally damaging activities through a price increase. The revenues of these taxes flow into the general budget and are not dedicated to financing environmental measures. Examples of environmental taxes are excise duties on petrol, motor vehicle tax, energy tax and tax on passenger cars and motorcycles.
- Environmental taxes on products
- The following product-related taxes are environmental taxes: tax on groundwater, tap water, waste, petrol, energy and packaging. These come under the environmentally based tax act (Wet belastingen op milieugrondslag).
- Fuel tax
- Tax charged on businesses extracting, producing or importing coal, and subsequently use or supply them as fuel. Its objective is to reduce environmental pollution and energy use. The tax is not charged on coal used to generate electricity. Since 2004 fuel tax has been largely integrated in the energy tax and the excise duties on mineral oils. It still exists for coal. Fuel tax is one of the product-related taxes that come under the environmentally based taxes.
