Kosovo has seen a higher-than-expected rise in tax revenues
Prishtina, KOSOVO - “The overall amount of money collected during the period January-April 2008 was €12.7 million more than expected for this period, namely an increase of 19.4 percent,” Kosovo’s Tax Administration said.
“Some of the factors that have influenced this rise in revenues is better communication with taxpayers, organising seminars for taxpayers, better efficiency in controlling taxpayers and in collecting debts and other outstanding payments,” the agency said.
Kosovo officials announced in late 2007 that the budget for 2008 will exceed €1 billion, compared to 2007 when it was around €718 million.
Most of this budget has traditionally relied on tax revenues, and so an increase in revenues will be good news for the government as it tries to increase its budget.
Regierung hat von Januar bis April 2008 12.7 Mio. € mehr an Steuern als bisher eingenommen, was an der verbesserten Kommunikation, Seminaren und verstärkten Kontrollen liegt. somit steigt auch das Budget (voraussichtlich) um 282 Mio für das Jahr 2008
