Tax agencies disclosed proceeds from production sharing agreements to state budget
Since 2006 till January 1, 2015 the contractors, sub-contractors and the operation companies operating within the framework of production sharing agreements (PSA) have transferred 15.6 billion AZN to the state budget of Azerbaijan ($19.88 billion at the current official rate of Central Bank), Zaur Fatizada, chief of the Department of Fiscal Service, said in his interview to Vergiler newspaper of the Taxes Ministry.
The contractors transferred 11.6 billion AZN of profit tax, of which 1,107,500 AZN falls to 2014.
“In 2014 the oil and gas industry played an important role in formation of proceeds to the state budget. The oil and gas industry transferred 2,827,000,000 AZN to the budget, which makes 39.7% of total sum of tax proceeds. In 2013 this index constituted 43.8%, while in 2012 – 45.5%,” he said.
Fatizada said that as a result of the thought-out economic policy, dependence of the country’s economy on the oil industry declines every year and tax proceeds from the non-oil sector to the state budget grow.—0—
