SHARE RELEASE:

Tax revenue again higher than a year earlier

Last year, tax revenue increased the most in personal income tax: it amounted to EUR 5,973 million and was 5.4% or EUR 195 million higher than in the previous year. Taxes on products increased slightly less (by 4.1%), of which the most the value added tax (by 4.9%). Other taxes on production increased by 3.4%, and corporate income tax by 2.6%, while taxes on capital decreased by 7.1%. The reason was lower revenue from the tax on balance wealth paid by banks.

Revenue growth from social contributions smaller than the year before, but higher than for taxes

Revenue from social contributions amounted to EUR 12.6 billion and increased by 8.8% or EUR 1 billion over the previous year. One of the reasons for a slightly higher growth was last year's introduction of the long-term care contribution.

In total taxes and social contributions, the share of taxes was 54.7% and of social contributions 45.3%. The share of the latter increased by 1.1 percentage point over the previous year.

The share of tax revenue in GDP slightly lower

As a ratio of gross domestic product (GDP), tax revenue accounted for 21.4% of Slovenia's gross domestic product. It was 0.3 of a percentage point lower than in the previous year.

Lower implicit tax rates on consumption, capital, and corporate income, slightly higher on capital and business income of households and employed labour

Compared with the previous year, the implicit tax rate on corporate income decreased by 1.6 p.p., on capital by 0.6 p.p. and on consumption by 0.1 p.p. On the other hand, implicit tax rates on capital and business income of households and employed labour increased by 0.4 and 0.2 of a percentage point, respectively.
