The Lithuanian Free Market Institute (LFMI), in cooperation with 4liberty.eu, has released a position paper on the EC’s proposal for digital levy, in response to open consultation on A Fair & Competitive Digital Economy – Digital Levy.

They would disincentivize investments and innovations, resulting in negative effects on employment, productivity, and income growth. Digital taxation will undermine EU competitiveness and recovery after the COVID-19 pandemic.
