The Independent Authority for Public Revenue is planning audits and cross-checks on incomes and properties for over 120,000 tax identification numbers in the near future. The goal is to collect revenues of 1.7 billion euros by the end of the year from tax evasion and to reduce the tax gap in income and VAT.

The crackdown on tax evasion is being intensified with a target to collect 65 billion euros. The escalating fight against tax evasion has established two new task forces:

– The center for special forces of tax and customs audits and investigations. This specially is a designed structure that will serve as a central hub for coordination, enhancing cooperation and effectiveness among specialised audit forces, intervening in real-time.

– The special unit for mass digital cross-checks, equipped with innovative tools such as big data analysis, comparative assessment, online investigations, and checks on digital invoicing systems.
