Sparing sanctions of Tax Ministry not in favor of the state budget

The Accounting Chamber of Azerbaijan (ACA) on the basis of tests in the 6th Territorial administration (southern economic region ) released a report on violations of financial discipline in the Ministry of Taxes .

The most common shortcoming is not a principled position against unruly taxpayers that do not provide a declaration or delaying payment of VAT and income tax of legal entities. Many employers have shied away from signing contracts with employees , a number of individuals and legal entities due to violations of the timing several times to pay the same tax. Did not maintain records of economic decisions on tax courts , which also led to shortages in the transfer of funds to the state budget . All this together led to a shortage of almost 600 000, which later (after the intervention of ACA ) was able to make up on the results of field and cameral inspections.

For the record - the sixth of the Ministry of Territorial Administration accountable taxes 46,325 active taxpayers.
