Abstract	This thesis, written on the basis of EU legislation on taxation in English, Croatian, and German, is based on the analysis of twenty nine regulations (one recast included) in force issued by the Parliament, the Council, the Commission, and the European Central Bank, corrigenda excluded. The regulations were issued in the time span from 1968 to 2014, and their analysis not only yields a useful array of correct terminology, but also goes to show how standardized EU terminology is, with its almost omnipresent one-to-one equivalence, and how efficient translators working for the EU have to be and actually are. It shows that English, German and Croatian have different tendencies when it comes to legal terms and orthographic ways of expressing different parts of legislative acts, but also how much these differences are overcome at the EU level, for the purposes of clarity and uniformity. The aim of this thesis is to give useful tips for translating EU legislation, point out the differences to be taken into account, and create a glossary of EU taxation terminology.
Abstract (croatian)	Ovaj rad, napisan na temelju poreznog zakonodavstva EU-a na engleskom, hrvatskom i njemačkom, temelji se na analizi dvadeset devet uredbi na snazi čiji su autori Parlament, Vijeće, Komisija i Europska središnja banka. Među tih dvadeset devet uredbi nalazi se i jedna preinaka, a ispavke nisu uzimane u obzir. Uredbe su donesene u razdoblju od 1968. do 2014., a njihova analiza nije dala samo niz korisne i točne terminologije, već pokazuje i koliko je terminologija EU-a standardizirana sa svojom skoro sveprisutnom ekvivalencijom jedan na jedan. Ona također pokazuje koliko učinkoviti prevoditelji Europske unije moraju biti, a i jesu u stvarnosti. Analiza otkriva i različite tendencije koje engleski, njemački i hrvatski imaju s obzirom na pravne termine i pravopisne načine imenovanja različitih dijelova zakonodavnih akata, ali i koliko su te razlike na razini EU-a izmirene radi jasnoće i ujednačenosti. Cilj je ovoga rada dati korisne savjete za prevođenje zakonodavstva EU-a, ukazati na razlike koje valja uzeti u obzir te izraditi glosar terminologije vezane uz područje oporezivanja Europske unije.
