"The Governing Board of the Indirect Taxation Authority, the institution that will administer the VAT, consulted with BiH parliamentary and government representatives and with BiH and international economists and concluded that the system that would suit this country best would operate at a single rate," Principal Deputy High Representative Donald Hays said in September.
“Upravni odbor ureda za neizravno oporezivanje, institucija koja će provoditi PDV, konzultirao se s predstavnicima parlamenta i vlade BiH, kao i s ekonomistima iz BiH i inozemstva, te zaključio kako bi sustav koji bi najviše odgovarao ovoj zemlji trebala biti jedinstvena porezna stopa,“ izjavio je u rujnu glavni zamjenik visokog predstavnika Donald Hays.
