Government spokesperson Ioana Dogioiu declared on Friday that the Executive adopted the normative act regarding the temporary reduction of the excise duty level for diesel and the establishment of the solidarity contribution on revenues from the marketing of crude oil and energy products obtained from the processing of crude oil extracted from the territory of Romania.
"The first point - the emergency ordinance regarding the temporary reduction of the excise duty level applicable to standard diesel and the establishment of the solidarity contribution on revenues from the sale of crude oil and energy products obtained from the processing of crude oil extracted from the territory of Romania. What this emergency ordinance establishes: the excise duty on standard diesel sold on the domestic market will be temporarily reduced, during the declared period of crisis on the oil and fuel market, by 30 bani per liter, 36 bani in total, including VAT, respectively from 2,804.29 lei per 1,000 liters, to 2,504.29 lei per 1,000 liters and from 3,318.74 lei per ton to 2,963.7 lei per ton. This reduction applies starting with the entry into force of the emergency ordinance for the period declared a crisis on the oil and fuel market," said Dogioiu at Victoria Palace.
She added that the ordinance also establishes a solidarity contribution for economic operators who either only extract or extract and market oil on Romanian territory.
"The solidarity contribution is applied in some thresholds by reference to the price of Brent oil, but as a result it represents 60% of the exceptional profit obtained in this period from the exploitation or exploitation and marketing of Romanian oil. Those thresholds that you see in the ordinance reported to the price of Brent oil are aimed precisely so that this exceptional taxation does not affect, for example, the level of investments. So, this will not be affected, only the exceptional profits from this period will be targeted", she stated.
Ioana Dogioiu stated that the reduction in excise duty on diesel will have a budgetary impact estimated at 0.61 billion lei.
