3.1. Data description | |||
Data presents environmental tax revenue (by tax category - energy, transport, pollution and resource taxes) broken down by economic activity (tax payer), using the NACE classification for production activities extended to cover taxes payable by households and non-residents. |
|||
3.2. Classification system | |||
Environmental tax revenue is broken down by: A. Classification according to type of environmental tax For analytical purposes, the environmental taxes are divided into four categories: B. Environmental taxes by economic activity Environmental tax revenues are allocated to the different tax payers: |
|||
3.3. Coverage - sector | |||
Environmental taxes by economic activity data cover taxes payable by all sectors of the economy: producers (economic activities by NACE), households as consumers as well as non-residents. Starting with the 2021 DC, data has been added for “Environmental taxes for national purposes (difference between total reported above and total published for national purposes)”. These are: - Energy taxes - Other taxes and fees - Pollution tax - Excises from sale of other products + General sales or turnover taxes + License tax - Resource tax - Taxes on revenues from the exploitation of natural resources Data has also been added for “Other environmentally related payments to government (fees and charges)”. These are: - Energy taxes - Contributions for the potential provided for hydropower purposes through the dams of the accumulation lakes from the administration of the National Administration "Romanian Waters" - Transport taxes - Rovinieta income + revenue from special transport authorizations + Income from road area use + Revenues from the use of Danube bridges + Revenue from revenue collection agencies - Pollution tax - Contributions for the reception of wastewater in water resources - General, specific, toxic and very toxic chemical indicators+Revenue from the application of the tariff for the approval of plans for the disposal of equipment and materials containing PCB / PCT+Revenue from the application of the tariff for the registration of manufacturers of electrical and electronic equipment and manufacturers of batteries and accumulators+Revenue from the application of the tariff for the approval of the inland transport of hazardous waste, the notification of the import of non-hazardous waste, the import / export of hazardous waste or its transit+Revenue from the application of the tariff for environmental impact assessment for certain public and private projects (various stages) or revision / updating of the environmental agreement+Revenue from the application of the tariff for environmental impact assessment for certain public and private projects (various stages) or revision / updating of the environmental agreement+Revenue from the application of the tariff for the issuance of the permit for the application in agriculture of sludge from wastewater treatment. - Resource tax - Mining and oil fees

3.4. Statistical concepts and definitions | |||
The environmental tax statistics are compiled based on Eurostat’s 2013 'Environmental taxes - a statistical guide'. Environmental tax is defined as "A tax whose tax base is a physical unit (or a proxy of a physical unit) of something that has a proven, specific negative impact on the environment, and which is identified in ESA2010 as a tax". Environmental tax statistics are part of European environmental economic accounts, which constitute satellite accounts to national accounts. Thus, environmental tax statistics follows ESA2010 definition of ‘taxes’. Consequently, only payments that are identified as taxes in the national accounts can be reported as environmental taxes whereas other types of payments to government are not excluded from the scope of the data collection. Compliance with the tax definition of the national accounts improves international comparability of the statistics, and is in line with the guidance, concepts and definitions of the System of environmental and economic accounting (SEEA). |

Romania transmits the data to Eurostat every year in April covering the years 2006 - n – 2 (n = current year). According to the regulation UE no. 691/2011. |
|
|||
6.1. Institutional Mandate - legal acts and other agreements | |||
Statistics on environmental taxes are based on Regulation (EC) No. 691/2011 (Annex II) on European environmental economic accounts as amended by Regulation 538/2014, as well as legal acts in the area of national accounts. Data transmission became obligatory in September 2013. Before, Eurostat collected the data on a voluntary basis. The basis for the national accounts tax aggregates is Table 9 "Detailed tax and social contribution receipts by type of tax or social contribution and receiving sub-sector including the list of taxes and social contributions according to national classification" of the ESA2010 transmission programme - Annex B of Regulation (EU) No. 549/2013 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 21 May 2013 on the European system of national and regional accounts in the European Union. Moreover, Commission Regulation (EC) N° 995/2001 of 22 May 2001 implementing Council and European Parliament Regulation (EC) N° 2516/2000 of 10 July 2000 on the recording of taxes and social contributions sets the rules for the data sources, time of recording and comparable treatment of taxes and social contributions assessed but unlikely to be collected. |

-Energy taxes paid by non-residents come from non-resident economic operators who pay Excises from energetical products sales.
-The compilation of transport taxes paid by non-residents are based on AEA and PEFA data. The first step was breaking down the transport taxes from NTL (S13) on households (HH) and economic activities (A_U) using PEFA, Table C - Physical use table of emission-relevant use of energy flows (related to fuel combustion). For the compilation of transport taxes paid by non-resident companies was considering only the share of transport taxes paid by economic activities, using the AEA transport of non-residents (Bridge table). The time series of AEA data cover the years 2008 - n-2, where n is current year. For 2006 and 2007 years, we made some statistical procedures (e.g. extrapolation). AEA and PEFA are in line with the ESA methodology, which present data in the same way that is fully compatible with the concepts, principles and data of the national accounts.

Due to the change in the reporting deadline, we had difficulties in collecting data according to the new requirements, the response time for data requests to institutions was short. Moreover, for the same reason, we did not have PEFA 2022 available for the compilation of energy taxes. Starting with 2021, the following energy taxes have been added to the NTL: Income from the contribution to the Energy Transition Fund; The additional income tax is obtained as a result of the deregulation of prices in the natural gas sector; Monopoly tax in the electricity and natural gas sector; Tax on additional income made by electricity producers in accordance with Law no. 259/202. We did not consider these as environmental taxes because they do not fall under the definition of environmental taxes according to the guide. These taxes, paid by energy producers/distributors, aim to moderate prices in the market. |
