Reporting An Offence Was Considered In One In Three Tax Audits

Reporting an offence was considered in one in three tax audits last year. The Finnish Tax Administration may conduct a tax audit as a control measure to investigate whether it has been provided with correct and sufficient information for the assessment of taxes and the fulfilment of the obligation to pay taxes. It is possible that parallel to the taxation adjustment process, the police are conducting a criminal investigation, of which the taxpayer may not be aware.
