Scottish Aggregates Tax (SAT)
The third devolved tax will be Scottish Aggregates Tax which will replace the UK Aggregates Levy in Scotland. Revenue Scotland has worked closely with the Scottish Government in the development of the Bill, which was published on 15 November 2023.
We have established our implementation programme and will continue to work with the Scottish Government, partners, and wider stakeholders to ensure the safe and secure delivery of the new tax. Stakeholders can contact us via the Scottish Aggregates Tax mailbox.
