Balgarianovinite.com The Bulgarian Industrial Capital Association (BICA) has expressed its official support for the Council of Ministers draft decree amending and supplementing the Ordinance on the Procedure and Amount of Product Fees, specifically regarding the reduction of state product fees for electrical and electronic equipment, the Association reported Wednesday.
The organization highlighted that its position is based on consultations held with a number of industry associations, members of the BICA, which are directly affected by changes in the regulatory framework for product fees.
The Association stated that the proposed changes would help restore the predictability and proportionality of the regime, limit the pressure on companies’ costs, improve the competitiveness of the Bulgarian industry, and reduce price pressure on end consumers.
The statement also highlighted that the product fees currently in effect in Bulgaria are significantly higher than the EU average, which puts Bulgarian manufacturers and importers at a competitive disadvantage.
In the second half of April, the Ministry of Environment and Water published the proposed amendments to the ordinance for public consultation. The Council of Ministers draft decree amending and supplementing the Ordinance on the Procedure and Amount of Product Fees aims to achieve a more proportional and fair system of product fees without weakening the environmental obligations under the special ordinances, its sponsors said.
