On Friday, August 4, the AADE is going to publish the names of big debtors in the Tax Office and EFKA.
In particular, according to the data published by the newspaper “Kathimerini” about the big debtors in question, we are talking about approx. 50,000 VAT number with debts to the Tax Office and 33,000 TINs with debts to EFKA – in some cases a TIN has debts to both agencies.
The following will be excluded from the publication of their names:
- Debtors who have settled.
- Debtors with debts suspended by temporary order, court decision, act of an administrative body or by law.
- Debtors with uncollectible debts.
- Deceased debtors.
- Legal entities in the narrow or wider public sector.
Most debtors did not respond to the call to settle their debts. The deadline for reviving the lost arrangements of 72 and 120 installments and for the arrangement of debts created after the pandemic in 36 or 72 installments expired on Monday (31.7.2023). The results are just not satisfactory.
For debts to the tax office:
Only 54,000 were included in the arrangements and the total settled debts amounts to 776 million euros.
For debts to insurance funds:
The potential beneficiaries of the arrangements were 260,000.
52,000 joined (Total settled debts 700 million euros).
About 10,500 of them already lost the new regulation.
The Ministry of Finance has rejected a new general regulation of debts as it also rejected the improvement of the conditions of inclusion in the regulations whose term has now expired.
It is estimated that of the 4.4 million taxpayers with debts to the tax authorities of 78.5 billion euros – this much is considered recoverable – only 4% have settled their obligations.
The rest are now faced with the collection mechanisms. Two million are already subject to wage garnishments and asset freezes, while 1.4 million more are at risk at any time.
The remaining 1 million, fortunately for them, owe less than 500 euros, which is the threshold above which compulsory collection measures are activated.
