This law regulates the taxation of barges operating in the Union Territory of Goa, Daman, and Diu. It applies to registered owners or anyone in possession or control of a barge used in the inland waters of the territory. The Act requires these individuals to file specific declarations regarding the barge's capacity and obtain a tax licence. It also mandates fresh declarations whenever the barge is altered or tax is paid. By imposing these requirements, the government ensures that barge operators contribute to the state's revenue and adhere to safety and operational standards for water transport.
