| Statistical presentation | |
| Data description | Provision of information from firms, firm establishments, municipal administrations, scientific institutes, foundations, ministries and other organizations and departments which during the accounting year have paid for environmental taxes. This includes environmental taxes classified into categories: energy, transport, pollution and resource taxes. |
| Classification system | The following classifications are used to produce environmental tax data: • Classification of Economic Activities (NACE.BG-2008) as of 01.01.2008; • National tax list, as reported by National accounts in the table. 9 of the program for data transmission. |
| Sector coverage | Included are the economic subjects from all economic sectors, which during the accounting year have paid for environmental taxes |
| Statistical concepts and definitions | Environmental taxes have the same systemic boundaries as the SNA 2010 and consist of compulsory, unrequited payments in cash or in kind levied by the general government or by the institutions of the European Union. According to the SNA 2010, environmental taxes are a sub-category of indirect taxes and include: taxes on production and imports (D.2), current taxes on income, wealth, etc. (D.5) and capital taxes (D.9). An environmental tax is 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 SNA as a tax. Types of environmental taxes - The main 4 categories of environmental taxes for which data is reported are: • Energy taxes: This category includes taxes on energy production and on energy products used for both transport and stationary purposes. The most important energy products for transport purposes are petrol and diesel. Energy products for stationary use include fuel oils, natural gas, coal and electricity. Carbon dioxide (CO2) taxes are also included under energy taxes. As a tax base for the emissions of CO2 are used the revenues from the Greenhouse gas emissions license (permits) fees under the Greenhouse emission trading system registered as taxes in national accounts. • Transport taxes: This category mainly includes taxes related to the ownership and use of motor vehicles, taxes on other transport equipment (e.g. planes, ships or railway stocks) and related transport services, road taxes. The transport taxes may be ‘one-off’ taxes related to imports or sales of the equipment or recurrent taxes such as an annual road tax. Taxes on petrol, diesel and other transport fuels are included under energy taxes. • Pollution taxes: Taxes on measured or estimated emissions to air and water, waste management and noise. • Resource taxes: Taxes on water extraction, hunting and fishing licenses, extraction of raw materials (e.g. sand and gravel) and other natural resources, commercial fishing. Value added type taxes (VAT), taxes on oil and gas extraction, fines and penalties for environmental pollution, donations are excluded from the definition of environmental taxes. Payments from consumers for provided certain environmental services by the state, such as wastewater treatment (discharge and treatment) and waste (household waste collection and disposal charge), are also excluded from the definition. |
| Statistical unit | Economic units that have paid environmental taxes. Data refer to environmentally related taxes collected by the government and payable by the different economic agents in a way that is fully compatible with the data reported under ESA 2010. |
| Statistical population | All economic units that have paid environmental taxes. The data are reported by the entities paying the taxes. The target population are all production sectors by NACE and as regard production refer to all the economic activities by NACE A * 64, on the basis of ESA 2010, households as consumers and non-resident units. |
| Reference area | Total for the country and by NACE Rev.2. / A11, sector households and non-residents |

| Legal acts and other agreements | The data collection on environmental taxes by economic activity is part of the EU Regulation N° 691/2011 on European environmental economic accounts of the European Parliament and of the Council of 6 July 2011. This Regulation provides a framework for the development of various types of environmental accounts. Environmental taxes by economic activity are included in Annex II of this Regulation. The national tax lists are collected by Eurostat as a complement of table 9 of the ESA 2010 (European system of accounts) transmission programme. National Accounts are compiled in accordance with the European System of Accounts (ESA 2010) adopted in the form of a Council Regulation dated 21 May 2013, No 549/2013 and published in the Official Journal L 174 of the 26/06/2013. A consolidated version is available on http://eur-lex.europa.eu/legal-content/EN/TXT/PDF/?uri=CELEX:32013R0549&from=EN The legal basis for the "Main national accounts tax aggregates" domain is Table 0900 "Detailed tax and social contribution receipts by type of tax and social contribution and receiving subsector" of the ESA 2010 transmission programme - Annex B of Council Regulation (EU) N° 549/2013 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 21 May 2013. |
| Data sharing | Regular Questionnaire/ Eurostat – Environmental taxes by economic activity. Eurostat collects data on environmental tax revenues through an annual questionnaire on Environmental taxes by economic activity. The final data refer to compulsory unrequited payments, which are levied by general government or by the institutions of the Union. Environmental taxes revenues are listed in the National Tax List (NTL). Environmental taxes, as part of the General government tax revenues, are included in Table 0900 Taxes and social contributions by type and sub-sectors of General Government and National Tax List NTL - Detailed list of taxes and social contributions according to national classification. The variables are presented according to the European System of Accounts (ESA 2010) classifications and the transmission program for submission and include detailed tax descriptions. Full coherence of environmental tax data by economic activity and total tax revenue is provided on the basis of the National Tax List. |
