VAT on feed for fish farms will not be levied until the end of 2027

To support domestic producers, the Cabinet of Ministers has decided to maintain a zero value-added tax (VAT) rate on feed for fish farms. The relevant changes have been made to the resolution “On measures to ensure food security and stabilize market prices”.

According to the decision, VAT will not be levied on the sale of feed for farmed fish until December 31, 2027. The exemption applies to feed classified under HS codes 2309 90 1000, 2309 90 3100, and 2309 90 9609. The zero rate applies if the feed manufacturer supplies it directly to fish farms.

This measure is expected to reduce the costs of fish farms, increase domestic production, and maintain stable prices for products. In addition, item 2 in the list of goods subject to zero VAT has been repealed. The resolution shall enter into force seven days after its official publication.
