There is no reason for a tax exemption for the export of raw materials
Member of the Board of Representatives of the Tehran Chamber of Commerce: It is also possible to determine which exporters receive subsidies and which do not. If someone receives a quota from the government, he has to pay taxes, when a commodity is produced and value added is added to it, taxes must be paid.
According to the International Iranian Stone Exhibition, Mohammad Hossein Didehour stated about the proposal of the Parliamentary Research Center in the field of export tax collection: "Unfortunately, tax exemptions have been considered for the export of raw materials." It is not at all acceptable for the government to subsidize the export of raw materials, because the same raw materials can be converted into other goods with higher added value, and there is no reason to give them tax exemptions.
A member of the Tehran Chamber of Commerce, criticizing the non-payment of taxes by large companies that use government subsidies, said: It may not be clear exactly what rent large companies that use natural resources benefit from, but in general, these All facilities are almost free to use. The price of gas, water and energy they use is not what they pay. These large units pay the same money to the government for the energy received that a small unit uses. Therefore, there is no justification for their financial exemption.
He added: "Exporters, ie traders who do not use subsidies, should not be taxed, but more should be taxed from these companies." Exporters get their goods to the target market with thousands of problems and high tariffs. Those who use low-cost services have to pay taxes that they do not. Now that the export market has fallen sharply, the exporter has to buy the currency at a free price and record it in half.
He added: "Therefore, through the stock exchange, it is possible to determine which exporters receive subsidies and which do not." If someone receives a quota from the government, he has to pay taxes, when a commodity is produced and value added is added to it, taxes must be paid. In general, both exporters and producers who use government subsidies must pay taxes.
