Rising prices, especially in the second half of last year, have added to customs crates, which for the past year have exceeded the plan by about 95m euros more.
According to data published in the annual report of the General Directorate of Customs, the revenues collected throughout 2021 only from the Tax on Added Value are about 31 billion euros, or about 250 ml more than planned.
Of these, about 12 billion euros, or about 110ml euros, are direct crates from the increase in the price of electricity, fuels and everyday consumer goods.
In total, customs have collected about 1.6 billion euros (193 mld lek), which is also the largest figure ever collected by this institution.
