government levies
Mandatory public payments
Government levies are mandatory payments imposed by authorities—taxes, fees, duties, tariffs, and assessments.
The term emphasizes the compulsory nature: governments levy these charges by law, and citizens must pay them.
The new government levies on imported goods raised prices across the board.
A levy can also be the act of imposing such a charge or the amount collected.
