Tax Force checks at gas stations - Documentation violations found in

The Task Force established to control wholesale and retail fuel points is conducting inspections throughout the country.

As part of the operational plan for monitoring the energy products market, after the action in Elbasan, the Tax Administration and the Customs Administration continued inspections of several fuel trading entities in Korça and Pogradec.

The General Directorate of Taxes announces that during the verifications, serious violations of tax legislation were found, while the non-tax documentation found in these entities was seized for the continuation of investigations and the referral of cases to the justice authorities.

It is reported that controls will continue throughout the territory with a focus on preventing abuses with fuel prices and formalizing the hydrocarbon sector.

The Joint Task Force for this purpose was established on March 13 and will be on the ground until June 30, 2026.

Controls will be carried out throughout the country based on risk analysis, focusing more on entities that carry out activities in the retail trade of fuels.

But what exactly will be checked?

During the checks, the compliance of the quantity of fuel supplied and sold will be verified; the origin of the product; the fiscalization of sales; the compliance of displayed prices with fiscal invoices, as well as the registration of employees.

This control aims to formalize the fuel market and guarantee transparency in the implementation of the law and protect citizens from abuses with fuel prices.

This Force Tax was established as a control instrument driven by the increase in fuel prices due to the conflict in the Middle East, which is also considered a moment where numerous abuses can occur by not reflecting real stock market prices and causing high and unfair costs for Albanian citizens.
