Short Description:

Overall goal


Ziel des Projektvorhabens ist die Unterstützung der Indirect tax Authority (ITA) in Bosnien und Herzengowina (BiH), speziell die Unterstützung des Governing Board der ITA bei der Einführung der Mehrwertsteuer. Der bosnisch-herzegowinische Gesamtstaat wird mit Einhebung der Mehrwertsteuer per 1. Jänner 2006 erstmals Einnahmen lukrieren. Die Institution ITA und deren Governing Board sind für den Prozess verantwortlich und koordinieren die unterschiedlichen Fiskalpolitiken in BiH. Budgetanalyse, Harmonisierung und Synchronisierung der unterschiedlichen Budgetzyklen auf Entitätenebene und Subentitätenebene sind die Hauptaufgaben der ITA.

Die EU wird ebenfalls eine Projektkomponente zur Etablierung der ITA, die Analyse-Einheit (EPPU), unterstützen. Der österreichische Beitrag wird einerseits für den Ankauf von dringend erforderlichem Equipment sowie zum personellen Aufbau/Stärkung der Macroeconomic Analysis Unit (MAU) und zur Errichtung des GB/NFC (Governing Board/National Fiscal Council) Sekretariats, welches juristische administrative Expertise bereitstellt, eingesetzt.

  • Purpose/ sector code: classifies the specific area of the recipient’s economic or social structure, funded by a bilateral contribution.
  • Tied/Untied: Untied aid is defined as loans and grants whose proceeds are fully and freely available to finance procurement from all OECD countries and substantially all developing countries.
