The Government of Montenegro has adopted several important decisions during its latest session.
The 2025 Annual Plan for Compulsory Oil Reserves was approved in accordance with the Law on Security of Oil Product Supply. The plan stipulates that Montenegro must maintain 112,340 metric tons of compulsory oil reserves, equivalent to 90 days of average net imports. The reserves will be maintained in accordance with European directives and include obligations for oil companies to contribute proportionally.
The government also adopted a proposal for amendments to the Law on Tax Administration. The changes aim to enhance the efficiency of tax collection, strengthen institutional cooperation, and improve overall tax compliance. These amendments are part of broader efforts to align Montenegro’s fiscal system with international standards and improve public revenue collection.
A decision was made to support the digitization of the Montenegrin tourism sector. The initiative includes the development of a unified digital platform to better track tourist traffic, accommodation capacities, and the issuing of electronic tourist registration certificates. This is intended to improve the competitiveness of the tourism sector and provide accurate and timely data for strategic planning.
The session also included the adoption of a decision on the reorganization of public forest management. The government will establish a new company responsible for forest exploitation, which is expected to improve transparency and economic efficiency in the forestry sector. This move aims to address challenges in forest governance and optimize the use of forest resources.
In addition to these decisions, the government reviewed several reports and adopted technical measures related to the implementation of national and EU obligations in energy, transport, and environmental protection.
