Tax regulation mechanism (Law on Environmental Pollution Taxes)
Natural and legal persons using biofuels, including biohydrogen, in vehicles are exempt from environmental pollution tax on their mobile source emissions. The decision to grant exemption from environmental pollution tax is based on documentary evidence. Moreover, in order to be eligible for environmental pollution tax relief, biofuels must meet certain statutory standards. The amount of subsidy is equal to the amount of tax a natural or legal person is exempt from (Art. 5 Par. 3 Item 4 Law on Environmental Pollution Taxes).
This measure applies to liquid and gas fuels produced from biomass (Art. 5 Par. 3 Item 4 Law on Environmental Pollution Taxes; Chapter I Art. 2 Par. 8 Law on Energy from Renewable Sources).
