Business criticizes fiscal package: “We were not consulted”

A group of business associations, led by the Chamber of Commerce,
accused the government of planning tax packages without consulting
enterprises.

Nikolon Jaka said that the business  climate has not improved, but it remains difficult because of a series of factors.

“Informality, corruption, high taxes, complicated tax system, frequent law amends, lack of an economic development vision, the tense political climate which stops direct foreign investments, the lack of public consultations that affect the enterprise, etc”, Jaka said.

Claiming that businesses were avoided in planning the fiscal package, Jaka read their propositions for easier measures in all sectors.

“Agriculture: 8% VAT, 0% tax on profit, 10% divident, 10% insurance, 10% tax on personal income. Tourism: 8% VAT, 10% tax on profit, 10% divident, 10% insurance, 10% tax on personal income”, businesses propose.

Besides agriculture and tourism, Jaka requested easier taxes for the manufacturing industry and family businesses.

The government has foreseen to make various changes, affecting free professions the most.
