Retail tax
The retail tax liability may affect all economic entities that sell their products, even if only in part, to private customers. Many economic entities are not aware that, if they serve private customers through a sales channel, then not only their revenue from selling to private customers, but their revenue realised on this entire distribution channel – also including wholesale sales – may constitute the tax base. As it is a progressive tax, the rate of the retail tax depends on the amount of the net revenue derived from the retail business. It is therefore of paramount importance that the taxpayers concerned act with due care when defining the distribution channels through which they generate taxable revenue.
