币界网报道:Sweden has abolished its air travel tax to support the aviation industry's recovery, removing the SEK60-400 fee per passenger that had been in place since 2018. The government stated the tax was harming domestic airlines' competitiveness and hindering route expansion. The removal, effective immediately, is expected to lower ticket prices and boost tourism. Critics argue it contradicts Sweden's climate goals, as the tax previously generated SEK1.5 billion annually for environmental initiatives. The decision follows similar moves by Germany and the Netherlands to reduce aviation taxes amid post-pandemic industry struggles.
