Fiscal issues The European Commission is currently reviewing the Energy Taxation Directive that was withdrawn by the European Commission in 2015 and the European Commission will probably publish a revised Energy Taxation Directive after the EP elections and installation of the new European Commission in November 2019. UEIL hopes that through the Energy Taxation Directive further progress can be made to achieve a real level playing field for the lubricants market in Europe.
Related to UEIL’s objective to prevent the inclusion of lubes under EMCS, UEIL will continue its outreach to the fiscal attachés of the Permanent Representations of the EU Member States.
