Surtax of 100.000 euro

An additional tax between 200 and 1,000 euros resulted for 600 of a total of 4,000 taxpayers who passed by their tax office last week for an on-the-spot check of their tax statement.

Overall, according to Naftemporiki, Taxisnet has blocked the submission of 100.000 statements which were considered for inspection by tax authorities before the tax clearance, and 100,000 taxpayers will also be checked for the same reason during August.

According to the news story the on-the-spot checks carried out by automatic calls of taxpayers in the electronic submission of the tax statement revealed a surtax of 100,000 euros.

The Greek tax authorities are calling for a review the following:

 

-  those who showed high withholding tax rates from salaried services and service receipts

- salaried workers who declared income from freelance professions either by service receipts or expenditure receipts issued by the employer

-  those who show high tax-free expenditure for doctors, medical expenses, mortgage interest and the traders with big business expenses that resulted in their net taxable income being significantly lower than their revenues

- traders and merchants that show large tax refunds from their periodic VAT returns.
