"Fuel excise duty
receipts are increasing which is shown by data. Excise duty receipts increased
14.4 % on year in the first seven months of the year," told spokesperson
for the ministry Maria Murakas.
According to the
ministry transport companies tanked in neighboring countries already before the
excise duty rise. "Tanking in Latvia has had a marginal impact on our
receipts," Murakas said, adding that at the beginning of September the
ministry will get the results of the first six months' receipts.
In the first six months
of the year fuel excise duty receipts totaled 238.7 mln euros.
A member of the board of
Olerex, Alan Vaht, said on Tuesday that as a result of people and companies
storing fuel, the state has lost 42 mln euros of fuel excise duty receipts and
17 mln euros of VAT from March to July.
