Ministry mulls taxing sweetened soft drinks - sources
Poland’s Ministry of Finance is analyzing the possible consequences of introducing a tax on sweetened carbonated non-alcoholic beverages, sources in the ministry told Dziennik Gazeta Prawna.
The possible excise tax could amount to between PLN 0.01-0.10 per liter. The rate could depend on the volume of sugar in a given beverage, the sources said.
The studies have however no formal ground yet. The ministry did not officially confirm any work on such a tax.
