About this statute

This preamble says the act implements parts of several EU alcohol excise directives and notes some earlier amendments were not correctly incorporated into a 2024 consolidation, while later 2024 changes are not yet included because they start on 1 July 2024. This section requires certain businesses to be authorised or registered with the tax administration before they can handle goods under the duty suspension scheme, and gives an authorised warehouse keeper specific rights to move goods within the EU. Security must be provided in an amount equal to the expected duty due for the next 12 months, but at least 20,000 kr. Section 25 requires security to be held by the tax authority before shipment of untaxed deliveries starts, and sets registration, reporting, and record-keeping rules for certain goods traders. The Minister of Justice and the Minister of Taxation may set further rules and control measures; violations and certain tax-evasion-related conduct are punishable by fine, and in one case by fine or imprisonment up to 1 year and 6 months.
