акциз

From Russian акци́з (akcíz), German Akzise, and possibly French accise, from Late Latin accisum (“used up, consumed”), in reference to the tax being levied on consumable goods such as tobacco and alcohol.

Bulgarian Etymological Dictionary cites Russian and German as the direct ancestors of the borrowing, whereas Dictionary of the Bulgarian Language and Bulgarian Explanatory Dictionary cite French.
