The American Forbes magazine has published a list of countries practicing incredible and weirdest taxes. Want to know which of them occupy the top lines of such a strange world ranking? Then sit back, because reading this list will not only make you smile.

Plaster Tax (Australia)

The first line of the ranking is occupied by Austria, where tax payments on gypsum from athletes-skiers go to local medical institutions.

Peace Tax (Guinea)

Guinea is in second place. The so-called peace tax is especially popular there. It is noteworthy that there are no military conflicts in the country.

Cow gas tax (Estonia)

The third position is occupied by Estonia, where residents pay a tax for cow emissions of natural gases. The law, which appeared here more than six years ago, made the country's population laugh. However, officials deemed it necessary, since these artiodactyls are the main living creatures that pollute the air there.

Sun Tax (Bele Islands)

The fourth place belongs to the Belear Islands, famous for tax revenues in the sun. All guests of the resort islands were required to pay a daily fee of one euro.

Barbecue Tax (Belgium)

Fifth on the Forbes list are Belgians paying barbecue taxes. Ecologists consider such a fee to be appropriate, and the government of the country monitors compliance with the law with all severity.

Disposable Stick Tax (China)

The sixth position is taken by the Celestial Empire, whose residents pay taxes on disposable sticks in the amount of five percent per pair. So the Chinese decided to fight deforestation and minimize it.

Piercing Tax (Arkansas, USA)

Seventh place belongs to the US state of Arkansas, in which everyone who wants to get a tattoo is asked to pay a piercing tax. Costs of clients of tattoo salons account for about six percent of the total cost of the service.

Shadow Tax (Venice)

Shadow tax exists in fabulous Venice. Visitors to cafeterias and even restaurants are presented with a certain amount for payment if the places of rest are equipped with sun visors. A similar law allowed the Italian city to be on the eighth line.

Unofficial Marriage Fee (China)

The last but one place again went to China. In the event of an unofficial marriage between them, a man and a woman are required to pay additional expenses, which amount to about one hundred and twenty euros each year.

Drug Tax (Tennessee, United States)

The bottom line is the state of Tennessee, in which people involved in the distribution of psychotropic drugs pay contributions for these substances. The official tax payment paper in their hands is a guarantee of milder sentences in court.
