Recently Published And Constantly Updated: The CMS Expert Guide To Climate Change Tax Reforms And Incentives!

We are proud to present our international CMS Expert Guide To Climate Change Tax Reforms and Incentives. It covers a total of 18 jurisdictions from all over the world – from Latin America to the UAE to China – and of course also covers Austria.

The topic of climate change is here to stay. The Paris Convention transfers the responsibility for limiting global warming to individual governments under the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change. They are expected to implement significant tax reforms as well as introducing tax benefits and sustainability incentives. This is the only way of achieving the Convention’s objectives.

It is also important for companies to have an overview of tax issues. Our Expert Guide can be of great help here. It provides you with a compact overview of current tax reforms, benefits and incentives related to climate change.

This link takes you directly to the Austrian section of the Expert Guide.

It deals (for Austria as well as the other jurisdictions covered) with such questions as:
- Have environmental taxes been introduced? (Energy taxes, transport taxes, pollution, and resource taxes.)
- Has a CO2 tax been introduced? 
- Are there sustainability incentives?
