In 2023, Portugal led with the highest tax revenue from environmentally related transport taxes in accommodation and food service activities at nearly 24 million USD. Italy followed closely, while France, Netherlands, and Germany presented moderate figures. Smaller economies like Lithuania and Estonia held less than a million USD, reflecting variances in environmental taxation policies across Europe. Notable year-on-year changes include Slovakia’s increase, while Finland saw a significant decrease.
Future trends to watch include increased tax revenue in countries like Lithuania due to progressive environmental legislation, while Greece may continue to see declines unless policy shifts. Monitoring how economic recovery post-COVID affects tourism and environmental policies in these countries is crucial for forecasting tax revenue changes.
