Cyprus collected €718.72 million in environmental taxes in 2024, according to new data from Eurostat.
The European Union-wide revenue from these levies rose by 6.1% last year, reflecting the expanding scope and enforcement of green fiscal measures across member states.
The figures highlight the increasing contribution of environmental levies to public finances in Cyprus.
While the absolute amount is modest compared to larger economies, the growth rate aligns with the broader EU trend of monetizing carbon and pollution controls.
This revenue stream is becoming a more predictable component of the island's fiscal intake.
Context from earlier in 2026 suggests this trend is accelerating.
