中国石化新闻网讯 据美国彭博新闻社4月28日坎帕拉报道,乌干达财政部长Matia Kasaija周二在坎帕拉举行的一次石油会议上表示,为了鼓励增产,乌干达政府日前取消了对本国新兴的石油、天然气和矿业勘探行业的征税。
乌干达财政部长“我们只有在开始生产时才进行征税。”
乌干达财政部长是在乌干达政府和乌干达矿业和石油商会之间在项目投资阶段免征勘探公司增值税和预扣税的谈判结束以后发表上述讲话的。

商会主席Elly Karuhanga在2月份曾说,勘探公司的税收负担可能高达39%,从而增加了“高度资本密集型行业”的成本。

乌干达目前正处于石油生产的边缘,包括英国图洛石油公司、中国海油和法国道达尔公司在内的国际石油巨头目前正在乌干达共同开发拥有65亿桶资源的发现。

Ugandan government scraps taxes on oil, gas, mining exploration

4/28/2015

KAMPALA, Uganda (Bloomberg) -- Uganda abolished taxes on its emerging oil, gas and mining exploration industries to encourage growth, Finance Minister Matia Kasaija said.

“We shall only start taxing you when you start production,” Kasaija said at an oil conference Tuesday in the capital, Kampala.

The announcement follows talks between the government and the Uganda Chamber of Mines and Petroleum to have companies exempted from value-added and withholding taxes during the investment phase of projects.

Elly Karuhanga, the chairman of the chamber, said in February that the tax burden on exploration companies can be as high as 39%, increasing costs in a “highly capital-intensive sector.”

Uganda is on the cusp of oil production, with companies including London-based Tullow Oil, China National Offshore Oil and France’s Total jointly developing discoveries estimated at 6.5 Bbbl of resources.
