Negligible change in assessed taxes
Total assessed taxes for shipping companies assessed in accordance with the special rules for limited shipping companies amounted to NOK 336 million in 2004. This is about the same as the previous year.
Assessed income tax was reduced by NOK 2 million, while tonnage tax was reduced by NOK 6 million compared to 2003. As from 2004, tax exemptions have been introduced for incomes from shares and other assets. This change has resulted in the disappearance of tax deduction for received dividends. In 2003 this deduction amounted to NOK 8 million.
A total of 400 limited shipping companies were assessed in accordance with the voluntary tax regime in 2004, compared to 420 companies the previous year.
