The National Assembly has amended the VAT exemption threshold for businesses from €25,500 to €51,000 of turnover from 2023. The amendments to the VAT law adopted at first reading affect a large number of  small and medium-sized enterprises.

According to the ruling coalition, this will make businesses more competitive and reduce their administrative costs. This increase in the VAT exemption threshold must be approved by the European Commission. "We see no reason why Brussels should refuse us", commented Democratic Bulgaria MP Martin Dimitrov.
