If you don’t pay your taxes now you will end up in trouble, new controls have been launched which will target all those who are tax evaders.
Tax evasion is one of the major plagues that Italy has to face from year to year. There are still many citizens who do not fulfill their duties and do not pay taxes. Already in the past the Government decided to take some measures to avoid all this.
Electronic invoicing, for example, was introduced precisely for this purpose. But now it seems that life will be very difficult for tax evaders due to the numerous checks that are expected in the coming months.
The number one enemy of those who persist in not paying taxes will not be the Revenue Agency, much less the State. Now it will be used to combat tax evasion Artificial Intelligence. The latter, much criticized on all fronts, turns out to be, however, a good ally against tax evasion.
From this moment on, the assessment will be carried out using new methods, introduced by the “Assessment” Decree, which specifically regulates the use of artificial intelligence. The new forecasts will make it possible to effectively combat tax evasion.
New tax assessments
To give specific indications in this regard the art. 2 of the decree. It regulates the way in which action is taken to combat tax evasion and fraud. What we are trying to encourage is spontaneous compliance. We therefore do not try to intervene on tax evasion, but to prevent it.
We therefore try to control the fiscal risk, to teach citizens common sense to guarantee the payment of taxes. They will then proceed with preventive checks starting from small and large companies, passing through individual citizens. A very large project that will also involve banks and credit institutions.
The exchange of information is the key
The art. 3 of the same decree indicates how important it is to strengthen collaboration between the financial administration and the competent authorities of the Member States of the European Union. We therefore seek collaboration in international terms.
Exchange of information should take place regarding the payment of taxes. The only limit foreseen is what is called commercial secrecy.
