In order to obtain the delay the Dutch authorities have been engaged to modify within next 1° January the national legislation on the tonnage tax regarding requirement of flag for the societies of ship management, to demand at the moment of the adhesion to the regime of tonnage tax the presence in the fleet at least a ship clapper flag of States of the EU or European Economic Spazio and to impose a limit of 50% to the revenues generated from activity considered accessory to the marine transport.
