This regulation implements modifications in the tax system of Bizkaia, in accordance with changes introduced by previous regulations, such as the Norma Foral 8/2022, the Decreto Foral Normativo 8/2021 and Law 9/2023. Among the modifications to the Regulation on formal tax obligations, several aspects stand out. It establishes the creation of the Register of extractors of fiscal deposits for products subject to the Taxes on Alcohol and Derived Beverages, Hydrocarbons, Fluorinated Greenhouse Gases, non-reusable plastic containers and deposit of waste in landfills, incineration and co-incineration of waste.
