佐治亚州暂停征收燃油税至10月29日 应对石油供应紧急状态

佐治亚州亚特兰大——佐治亚州税务局宣布,自9月29日起暂停征收州燃油税至10月29日,以应对石油供应中断引发的紧急状态。据《彭博法律》报道,在此期间,加油站销售的汽油与柴油将免征州燃油税,司机每加仑可节省数十美分。
州政府此前宣布进入紧急状态,原因是石油供应链中断导致部分地区燃油供应紧张、价格上涨。暂停燃油税被视为直接减轻民众加油负担的措施。税务局表示,税务暂停期间,燃油经销商与零售商须按规定调整计税,州政府将监督执行情况。
佐治亚州州燃油税每加仑约数十美分,暂停一个月预计将为全州司机节省可观开支。消费者组织对这一决定表示欢迎,认为在油价高企时期,任何减负措施都有实际意义。
税务局提醒,燃油税暂停至10月29日结束,之后将恢复正常征收。州政府表示将持续监测供应状况,必要时采取进一步措施保障燃油供应稳定。
Georgia Suspends Motor Fuel Taxes Through Oct. 29 Amid Petroleum Supply Emergency
ATLANTA — The Georgia Department of Revenue has suspended state motor fuel taxes from Sept. 29 through Oct. 29 in response to a petroleum supply emergency, Bloomberg Law reported. During the suspension, gasoline and diesel sold at the pump are exempt from state fuel taxes, saving drivers tens of cents per gallon.
The state declared an emergency after petroleum supply disruptions tightened fuel availability and pushed prices higher in parts of the state. Suspending the fuel tax is aimed at directly easing pain at the pump. The revenue department said distributors and retailers must adjust tax collection accordingly during the suspension, with state oversight of compliance.
Georgia's motor fuel tax runs tens of cents per gallon, and the month-long pause is expected to save drivers statewide a significant sum. Consumer advocates welcomed the move, saying any relief matters while fuel prices run high.
The department noted the suspension ends Oct. 29, after which normal collection resumes. The state said it will keep monitoring supply conditions and take further steps if needed to keep fuel flowing.
