In three axes will move the summer controls of the Hellenic Revenue Service that will cover, apart from the tourist areas and resorts, the entire territory. Essentially, as reported by APE-MPE, will significantly strengthen last year's model of controls, which was considered particularly successful.
The three main features, according to the same information, are as follows:
1.Capacity: This means full audits in one city or region by auditors of other cities or regions. For example, auditors from Serres will go to Crete, where they will be unknown.
2.Circularity: That is, all the services of the Hellenic Revenue Service participate in the audits, as follows:
-Initially, businesses, e.g. in Santorini, will be «visited» by auditors from the island. It is not necessarily required that they find wrongdoing, but it is sufficient to record the behaviour. ’The locals will thus calm down, thinking that the controls are over,« an ADSE official who has participated in similar controls tells APE-MPE.
-Then, auditors from another region of the country will go to the island.
-At the end, the auditors of the Public Revenue Control and Assurance Service (YEDDE) will take over the role. They will be given the data collected from the two previous cases and the audits will be targeted.
3.MyData: Here there will be a continuous comparison of this year's with last year's transactional activity and the resulting data will be transmitted to the competent authorities for similar targeted controls. At the same time, the algorithm will «scan» everything related to the assets of the auditee, such as deposits, real estate, etc.
«Of course there will be preventive checks on the streets of cities, on the islands and elsewhere, but MyData will “see” all of Greece», stress the officials of ADSE.
It is noted that, according to the operational plan of the Hellenic Revenue Authority, for the whole of this year, the collection of 65.01 billion euros is sought. In this framework, in addition to all the others, 10,000 checks will be carried out using cross-checks and discrepancies data (POS, MyData), 2,555 targeted checks, 6,345 targeted prioritized checks, 3,000 checks following information sheets and information reports the YEDDE, 1,600 extraordinary and cross-checks, at least 42.000 partial on-the-spot preventive checks by the tax authorities, the NFCs and the Hellenic Tax Administration, in targeted geographical areas, or sectors of traders, or in targeted VAT numbers of businesses or traders, and in business sectors with an increased risk of tax evasion and fraud.
