Business

VAT (19%) is, therefore, calculated upon a price including transport fees plus all of the above taxes, which leads to a price increase of about 20%. There is a no-duty exception for biochemistry analyzers during the first 6 months of the year 2000. The high level of duty is a serious impediment to imports from the United States, especially for hematology analyzers, blood cell counters and composite reagent test kits, products that become less competitive than similar EU products, even if they are of better quality.
