(communal) tax on business signs


Explanation:
"Local Government Information Network - USAID (Serbia Local Government Program)
...
The tax on construction land and communal tax on business signs (“firmarina”) was increased by 20%, from which a portion goes directly to the BID budget and the other half is assigned to the Communal Enterprise providing enhanced cleaning services in the BID zone."

"The Berkeley Electronic Press - SelectedWorks
...
There are two reasons for the lack of signage and advertising. The first is that there is a specific governmental tax on business signs, which small merchants typically do not wish to pay."

Notes to answerer
Asker: Hvala Bojane, jedino što bih kao krajnje rešenje upotrebio fee on business signs, jer se zaista ne radi o porezu, već o taksi. Pošto sam sticajem okolnosti radio na pomenutom USAID-ovom programu, raspitaću se kod bivših kolega zašto su upotrebili reč tax, a ne fee.

firmarina (communal fee on displaying of business sings on business premises)


Explanation:
Poenta je u dve stvari: ovo je opštinska komunalna naknada, ne porez (iako u realnost možda deluje kao porez, porez ipak nije), i drugo, ovakva taksa ne postoji zapravo ni u jednoj drugoj državi Evrope.

Zato, nakon prvog objašenja u tekstu, ili više puta, ako je baš dugačak tekst, najlakše je i najbolje je i u engleskom tekstu dalje je zvati "firmarina" jer je sve ostalo apsolutno neizvodljivo. Radio sam na projektu koji se bavio lokalnim taksama i strani eksperti su se brzo navikli na izraz jer se lako izgovara i znači tačno određenu stvar. Na isti način ćete nekada u engleskim, i našim tekstovima, naći recimo izraz Mehrwersteuer (merverštojer), za PDV, naročito u periodu kada je takav porez postojao u Nemačkoj, ali ne i u Velikoj Britaniji.

Example sentence(s):
  • This study report provides an analysis of the current practice in local business taxation in Serbia (firmarina) and an overview of the academic discussion as well as of the international practice of local business taxation.
