It is proposed to impose a 5% tax on bank deposit income

The idea of equating interest income on deposits with dividends and setting a 5% tax rate for them is being put forward. This initiative is stemming from the Ministry of Economy and Finance's efforts to reduce the shadow economy, improve tax and customs administration, and based on fiscal analysis. According to calculations, the introduction of a 5% tax is expected to have a positive impact on the state budget. The advantages and potential outcomes of these changes are being discussed among the public.
