# What's New: Excise Taxes (2026 release wave 1)

> Excise taxes framework in Business Central (2026 release wave 1): configurable excise types, six tax bases, entry permissions, fixed-rate duties, excise journal and transaction logs, with CBAM and EPR running in parallel. Evidence for setup steps and limitations such as fixed-rate only and no combining plastic tax with other types.

[Watch on YouTube](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Cj_n5x3gN_Y) · Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central (YouTube) · 2026-04-01 · 16:09 · tier official · reviewed (checked by Opus)

## Overview

The session covers how the excise taxes framework, delivered in 2025 wave 2 with a framework and two options, was extended in 2026 wave 1 to many more excise types, such as plastic tax, sugar tax, alcohol, cigarettes, petrol and cannabis. It explains setup of excise tax types, tax bases, entry permissions and duty rates, and how the excise journal finds entries and calculates excise transactions.

Demos show item configuration with excise quantity, tax type and entry permission setup, journal generation and results, multiple excise types, and the excise transaction log. The presenter notes limitations and says the plan is to keep investing in the area, including reporting.

## Key points

- Excise taxes is an independent app and can be removed from the system.
- Six tax bases are available: weight, volume, quantity, sugar content, pure alcohol content and active content. Each excise tax type is configured with its tax base.
- Entry permissions set which transaction types count: purchase, positive adjustment, output, assembly output, sales or negative adjustment. A 'set default permissions' action can propose them.
- Only fixed-rate duties are supported, not percentage-based. Rates can be set on items or fixed assets with effective-from dates.
- Plastic excise tax cannot be combined with other excise tax types. CBAM and EPR use the same excise journal and can run in parallel with excise taxes (plastic tax does not exclude EPR); they are set up separately on the item's sustainability fast tab.
- Items can carry an excise quantity with its own unit of measure, separate from the item's standard unit; the amount is source quantity x excise quantity x excise duty rate.
- The excise transaction log records excise, CBAM and EPR entries. No dedicated report exists yet, but the data can be exported to Excel.
