https://reform.news/en/tax-ministry-comments-on-draft-amendments-to-the-tax-code/Belarus’s Ministry of Taxes and Duties says most taxpayers will not face an increase in their tax burden in 2027. The ministry made the statement in response to the draft amendments to the Tax Code published yesterday.
“The main priority remains unchanged: ensuring a stable flow of revenue into budgets at all levels to meet all government obligations. What does this mean for businesses and individuals? The tax burden and tax conditions will remain unchanged in 2027 for the vast majority of taxpayers. A stable tax system is an important factor in economic development,” the statement said.
Commenting on the draft, the ministry noted that it provides for the indexation of fixed tax rates in line with projected inflation, including property taxes, resource payments and the unified tax. Such adjustments “make it possible to preserve the real value of tax revenues without changing the underlying principles of taxation”.
The draft also provides for “targeted clarification of the Tax Code’s provisions in light of law enforcement practice”.
