英国财政大臣约翰·希利计划在10月28日公布的首份预算中,推出针对在线市场平台的新税收政策1。根据该计划,亚马逊和eBay等在线市场平台将需要对年营业额超过90,000英镑的平台零售商所征收的增值税承担责任1。这一举措预计可为英国财政部增加最多10亿英镑的收入1。
希利政府表示,新政策旨在打击外国零售商规避增值税的行为1。所筹集的税收收入预计将用于降低高街小商店的商业税率1。此外,国际货币基金组织本周将英国今年的GDP增长预期上调至1.3%,较7月的预测上升0.3个百分点1。不过,财政研究所警告称希利的预算存在35亿英镑的支出缺口需要填补1。
UK Chancellor of the Exchequer John Healey is planning to introduce tax measures in his first budget on October 28 that would make online marketplace platforms such as Amazon and eBay responsible for collecting value-added tax from retailers selling on their sites.1 The policy is expected to generate up to £1 billion in revenue for the Treasury.1 The new rules would require online marketplaces to handle VAT collection for retailers with annual turnover exceeding £90,000.1
Healey's administration intends to use the additional revenue to reduce business rates for high street shops.1 The Chancellor faces a significant fiscal challenge, with the Institute for Fiscal Studies warning that his budget contains a £35 billion spending gap that needs to be addressed.1 However, the International Monetary Fund this week raised its forecast for UK GDP growth this year to 1.3 percent, an increase of 0.3 percentage points from its July projection.1
