Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
I received a tax audit notice – what should I do first?
It is advisable to immediately review the tax authority documents, deadlines and the scope of requested documents. Experience shows that a quick, organized response reduces risk and the number of later disputed points.
What is the difference between a compliance inspection and a tax audit?
The purpose and legal effect of the two types of inspection differ. A compliance inspection primarily examines the fulfilment of tax obligations, records, data and certain business events, whereas a tax audit is aimed at verifying the basis and amount of the tax or budgetary subsidy. In terms of procedural strategy, deadlines and evidence, it is therefore essential to know exactly which type of inspection NAV is conducting.
When is it worth appealing a tax authority decision and how?
An appeal is worthwhile if the facts are incomplete, the assessment is disputable, or the legal interpretation applied can be challenged. In appeals, deadlines and targeted submission of evidence are decisive.
Can tax penalties and late payment surcharges be reduced?
In certain cases, there is an opportunity for reduction or waiver, especially on equity grounds. The circumstances and documentary background must be properly substantiated for this.
What is the risk of late "supplementation" of evidence?
If relevant documents emerge late in an audit or proceeding, the tax authority may assess them as unreliable or not authentic. Therefore, it is important to organize documentation in a timely manner.
My company has risk due to a specific invoice/partner – what can be done?
Through due diligence, internal documentation and risk-reducing steps (certificates, performance substantiation, contractual order), the defense position can be significantly improved in a later tax dispute.
Do you provide representation in tax authority proceedings?
Yes, depending on the inquiry, I provide full representation in tax authority audits, administrative proceedings, appeals and, if necessary, in the judicial phase as well.
