At Thursday’s government briefing, Gergely Gulyás said that the VAT reduction did not arise, which otherwise significantly lowered inflation in Croatia.

And the reason for this is that, according to their point of view, the VAT reduction does not bring a price reduction, but an increase in commercial profit. According to the minister, the high VAT does have the risk of not being paid, but this is an area where even the European Commission admits that progress has been made, VAT fraud has been reduced.
