Subject. This article examines the issues related to the system of government revenues in the Syrian Arab Republic, including current and investment income. Objectives. The article aims to identify the shortcomings of the government revenues accounting system in the Syrian Arab Republic compared to accounting practices and policies in developing and developed countries, and determine areas that require improvement and development. Methods. For the study, I used the methods of comparative analysis. Results. Based on a comparative analysis of public revenues systems in developing and developed countries, as well as in the Syrian Arab Republic, the article identifies certain shortcomings in the government revenues accounting system of the Syrian Arab Republic and highlights areas for improvement. Conclusions and Relevance. The main problems in the area of government revenues arise due to the gap between the growth of revenues in Syrian pounds, caused by inflation, and the depreciation of the Syrian pound against the US dollar as a result of the exchange rate collapse. This gap creates significant obstacles for imports and investment. Innovative solutions are needed to increase revenues and overcome the inflation gap and the decline in income in US dollars. The procedures developed based on the results of the study may contribute to improving the quality and control of government revenues in the public institutions of the Syrian Arab Republic.
Keywords: government receipts, current receipts, investment income, public sector, Syrian Arab Republic
