The Tax Office: The New Taxis After 27 Years – The Ten Interventions – The Financial Postman

AADE is proceeding with a radical facelift of its taxi, Taxicent and Linksys information systems after the project was included in the Recovery and Resilience Fund.

The project “Development of a new integrated integrated tax information system for AADE (TAXIS – TAXISNET – ELENXIS)” envisages full registration of the income and property profile of taxpayers, upgrading and strengthening audit tools, expansion and use of data and information, tax compliance monitoring and better information for taxpayers and expansion of electronic services .

AADE: AI tax audit is coming

According to the decision of Deputy Finance Minister Theodoros Skilakakis, the project aims to standardize, collect and use databases, address tax evasion and non-tax compliance, but also generally improve the services provided by AADE to the taxpayer. It includes, among others, the integration and use of existing applications and services, such as EISPRAXIS, myDATA, myPROPERTY, Ship Register, etc.

Key actions

In more detail, the main actions of the project are:

1. Register of taxpayers. It will include personal details and information of natural and legal persons, and will provide Tax Registration Number (TIN) and Activity Code (KAD) numbers. You will manage branches, start and end details of activities, marital status and member relations of company board members, corporate relations etc.

2. Register of movable and immovable assets

3. Taxpayer declaration services

4. Tax certificate and payments. It will include services related to all the filing obligations that every taxpayer has in accordance with the law. Depending on the taxpayer’s profile, the taxpayer will be required to certify pre-filled forms, or fill out forms provided by the system. The system will check third-party sources as appropriate, perform calculations and compensation for taxes and surcharges or fines, confirm tax liability or refunds, and issue reconciliation statements.

5. The accounting picture of the taxpayer. It will include account-keeping functions for all taxpayers. At the same time, it will record all movements and transactions for all types of taxes and all payment systems, regarding obligations, certificates, collections, settlements, fines, surcharges and compensation. Thus, it will constitute a comprehensive “taxpayer picture”, aspects of which will be provided to taxpayers through the “taxpayer picture, notices and assistance” function.

6. Disclosures – Notifications, Compliance, Appointment and Case Management.This job relates to the assignment of cases for processing by line managers across the territory. It will provide “end-to-end” management and oversight of each case, recording data from multiple systems and functions, as well as the actions of the parties involved to complete each case.

7. Risk analysis. The profiling will involve different entities. Profiles will be configured and maintained using the most appropriate techniques and methods, depending on the situation and the problems to be solved. This job should be able to benefit from analyzing and modeling subjects’ behavior and recognizing similarities.

8. Support site audits and audits. It will include the functions that will support the audit work that will be carried out in the audit centers. It will be supported by two versions, one for a remote audit and one for an on-site audit at the taxpayer’s premises. The functions will cover a full range of tasks, as well as the collection and processing of necessary data from AADE systems and external sources, in order to prepare, implement and process audit findings by AADE executives.

9. Generate reports and configure compliance policies. It will include the management of settlements and arrears based on a single set of rules. All means will be provided to the taxpayer to stay on the side of voluntary compliance by regulating his obligations.

10. Register of electronic means of the taxpayer. This area will include accreditation, identification and system registration services, which will transmit data securely to the AADE on behalf of the taxpayer, ensuring its authorization. As well as tax mechanisms, cash registers and points of sale, taxi counters, electronic billing providers and ERP systems, as well as information systems for accountants and tax technicians.
