About this statute

This text says the law implements parts of several EU alcohol excise directives and sets duty rules for beer, wine, and fruit wine, including rates, exemptions, reductions for small independent breweries, and when the tax is triggered. Section 29 defines several excise-goods statuses and requires certain businesses to register or obtain authorization before handling goods under the suspension scheme. Der skal stilles sikkerhed for et beløb, der svarer til det forventede skyldige afgiftsbeløb for de kommende 12 måneder, dog mindst 20.000 kr. Businesses must provide security to customs/tax authorities before certain untaxed shipments start, and several registration, reporting, recordkeeping, and invoicing duties apply to registered operators. The Justice Minister and the Tax Minister are given rule-making powers, and breaching the listed tax-control rules can be punished with a fine, or with a fine or up to 1 year and 6 months’ imprisonment if done to evade tax.
