煙草在線據《商業回顧》報道編譯　　根據最近Novel研究公司的市場報告說，羅馬尼亞的卷煙黑市所占的比例在今年7月首次出現了下滑，占總市場的12.9%。相比之下，今年5月卷煙黑市占13.3%，3月占13.4%，1月占13%。

　　Novel研究公司的總裁Marian Marcu說：“在各種發展趨勢中，我們注意到今年7月從烏克蘭走私進入羅馬尼亞的卷煙出現了下滑（比5月份下降了7%，總計為17.7%），而免稅產品的卷煙走私大幅增加（比5月增長了5.7%，增加到了23.2%）。我們在5月份看到的其他發展趨勢更為明顯。因此，塞爾維亞仍然是走私卷煙的主要來源，32%的走私卷煙都來自這個國家，7月與5月相比，增長了2.9%。此外，帶有摩爾達維亞印花稅票的產品比例保持下滑趨勢。”

　　日本煙草國際羅馬尼亞與摩爾多瓦公司的企業事務與宣傳董事Gilda Lazar說，7月與5月相比，黑市所出現的0.4%的下滑，是今年報告出現的首個黑市下滑，使黑市所占的比例低于13%的心理承受水平。她解釋說：“這是一個積極的結果，尤其是考慮到在當前的政治環境下，當局繼續采取一致措施，減少卷煙走私，并將這減少卷煙走私作為優先考慮的事情時。”

　　據英美煙草羅馬尼亞公司的企業與法律事務董事Adrian Popa說，卷煙走私每下降一個百分點，就意味著羅馬尼亞國家預算的稅收增加3000萬歐元。

　　菲莫羅馬尼亞與保加利亞公司的企業事務董事Sorana Mantho認為，當局必須繼續開展工作，減少卷煙走私，這樣，走私水平才會降到10%以下。這可以通過改進現有法律，向從事打擊卷煙走私的部門劃撥必要的資金來完成。

　　2011年，羅馬尼亞的三大主要卷煙制造商——日本煙草羅馬尼亞公司、英美煙草羅馬尼亞公司和菲莫羅馬尼亞公司——以消費稅和增值稅的形式，為羅馬尼亞國家預算創造了大約275萬歐元的收入。

Cigarette Smuggling Drops Below 13 Pct in Romania

　　The level of the local black market for cigarettes has dropped for the first time this year in July, reaching 12.9 percent of the total market, according to recent Novel Research market report. By comparison, the black market amounted to 13.3 percent in May, 13.4 percent in March and 13 percent in January.

　　"Among the trends we have noticed this July there is a decrease of cigarettes smuggled from Ukraine (down 7 percent on May and totaling 17.7 percent) and a significant increase of cigarette smuggling with duty free products (up 5.7 percent on May, to 23.2 percent). Other trends we have seen in May have become even stronger. Thus, Serbia remains the main source of smuggled cigarettes, 32 percent of the smuggled cigarettes coming from this country, up 2.9 percent in July against May. Also, the share of products having Moldavian fiscal stamps remains on a downward trend," said Marian Marcu, general director of Novel Research.

　　The 0.4 percent decrease reported by the black market in July against May is the first drop reported this year, bringing it below the psychological level of 13 percent said Gilda Lazar, corporate affairs & communications director at JTI Romania and Moldova. "It is a positive result especially when considering that even in the present political context, the authorities have continued their concerted efforts to reduce cigarette smuggling and made this a priority," she explained.

　　According to Adrian Popa, corporate & regulatory affairs at BAT Romania, each percentage point drop in cigarette smuggling means a EUR 30 million revenue increase for the state budget.

　　The authorities must continue their efforts to reduce cigarette smuggling so that its level should go below 10 percent, thinks Sorana Mantho, corporate affairs director at Philip Morris Romania and Bulgaria. This can be done by improving existing laws and allocating the necessary funds to the authorities involved in fighting cigarette smuggling.

　　In 2011 the three main cigarette manufacturers in Romania - JTI Romania, BAT Romania and Philip Morris Romania - have generated some EUR 2.75 million to the state budget in the form of excise duties and VAT. Enditem
