Reference salary for tourism employees - New plan/ How will accommodation structures be controlled during the season?
While the tourist season has already begun and a high influx of tourists is expected, the tax administration will be on the ground to ensure that all tourist entities pay their real obligations.
In the tourism plan published by the General Directorate of Taxes, it is stated that the level of utilization of accommodation structures will be monitored as well as the weekly monitoring of the turnover of taxpayers who exercise activity in the tourism sector, using data from fiscalized invoices and tax declarations.
An important measure is the determination of reference salaries for professions in the tourism sector and the identification of taxpayers at risk in order to realistically declare payments during this period, when it is known that they are increasing.
The declaration of tax obligations in accordance with legal deadlines will also be supervised, including VAT, profit tax and withholding tax.
An important component will be monitoring the fulfillment of tax obligations through payments made and identifying cases of delays in the settlement of these obligations.
The tax administration will conduct an analysis of the status of taxpayers in the population (active/passive/newly registered) to identify structural changes and fiscal behaviors in the sector.
The focus will be on the analysis of taxpayers with deviant behavior, such as: Submission of declarations with zero values, despite exercising the activity; Significant decline in turnover compared to previous periods; Repeated delays in fulfilling tax obligations.
How will the comparison of fiscal data be done through: Turnover in fiscalized invoices and VAT declarations; Turnover between consecutive months and/or between consecutive years; Declared turnover and number of employees; Number of employees and tax liability for VAT.
