GFM: the daily fee for tax-free domestic postings will increase by three times, and the daily fee for foreign postings will increase by almost two times
From the point of view of the national economy as a whole, the government attaches great importance to the logistics and road transport sector, which is an important and unavoidable element of the Hungarian economy. This sector accounts for 5 percent of the GDP and 4 percent of the employed, ensuring the livelihood of around 130,000 families, the Ministry of Economic Development (GFM) wrote in its statement on Monday.
However, the war and the failed sanctions caused considerable damage to domestic carriers. Due to the energy crisis, fuel has become more expensive, sanctioned inflation has resulted in a competitive disadvantage through daily fees, which have remained unchanged since 2015, which drivers typically use to buy food, they said. While Hungary ranked 8th in the European Union ranking in terms of international transport performance before the Covid-19 crisis, we are currently only in 12th place – the ministry’s announcement reads.
The government has reviewed the situation in order to deal with the further market loss observed both at home and abroad, the wage competition, and the driver shortage of 10,000 people. Among the steps aimed at improving competition, the government first corrected the tax-free daily allowance, adapting it to the changed market situation.
