Attention to nature users

The Vitebsk Regional Committee for Natural Resources and Environmental Protection draws the attention of nature users to the fact that in accordance with paragraph 5 of Article 251 of the Code of the Republic of Belarus of 29.12.2009 No. 71-Z "Tax Code of the Republic of Belarus (Special Part)", an economic incentive mechanism is in place for the implementation of environmental protection measures. This mechanism consists in the fact that the calculated amount of environmental tax for emissions of pollutants into the atmosphere, discharge of wastewater, storage or disposal of waste is reduced by taxpayers quarterly by the amount of expenses incurred for the financing of capital investments (excluding capital investments financed from the budget) for the construction and (or) reconstruction of environmental protection facilities.
