The opportunity to reunite with settings for 72, 100 and 120 doses in thousands debtors who lost them during the energy crisis provides governmentwhile at the same time and for the first time those who managed to keep their arrangements during the same period are awarded.
Prime Minister K. Mitsotakis during his tour of Kozani, he admitted that there was a serious problem private debtstating that paying in two installments will trigger the restoration of lost settings.
At the same time, he noted: “It is not enough to support our fellow citizens who are struggling and missing out on regulation. There are our fellow citizens who have been quite consistent and are now hardly fulfilling their obligations after the pandemic. We also want to do something for them.”
According to reportsWith paid in two monthly installments those who missed the dose setting of 72, 100 or 120 will be able to join them. At the same time, a new special reward scheme is being promoted for permanent debtors who paid off their debts before the energy crisis, managed to keep them active, but also created new debts. These debts will be repaid in 36-72 installments. Most likely, the regulation model developed during the pandemic will operate, according to which 36 contributions will be interest-free, and those who choose more will be interest-bearing.
Which settings are animated:
1. Setting 36 or 72 pandemic debt payments: The agreement concerns debt to tax authorities and insurance funds confirmed between March 1, 2020 and July 31, 2021, which is repaid up to 36 interest-free monthly payments or up to 72 payments with an interest rate of 2.5%. . Individuals and legal entities that have been described as affected by the pandemic can join the agreement. The minimum monthly payment was €30 for debts up to €1,000 and €50 for larger debts.
2. Setting 100 or 120 doses: Renewal of old arrangements for 100 or 120 payments will depend on the terms of the original arrangements for repayment of the remaining debt. Missed payments will be carried over at the end of the arrangement. For example, if the debtor has not paid for 12 months, the 120 payment arrangement will be extended for another 12 months.
At the same time, a special procedure for rewarding successive debtors is being promoted – today the announcement of measures.
A prerequisite for both this and the above is that two installments must be paid when applying for reinstatement. It is noted that more than 600,000 individuals and legal entities have joined the 120 installment scheme implemented by the government, but along the way, many have lost it for various reasons. Recall that the agreement on 120 installments concerned employees, pensioners, the self-employed who closed their quarters, the unemployed, farmers with special status and enterprises with debt (principal debt up to 1 million euros). The minimum contribution was set at 20% and the interest rate at 3%. A similar mechanism has been established for foundations.
There is a high probability that at the same time mechanisms for repaying debts to tax authorities and funds will be opened.
According to the tax administration, about 5.3 billion euros are in regulation and are repaid with some rules in force (100 parts, 120 parts, pandemic debt up to 72 parts and permanent regulation of the Ministry of Finance in 24-28 doses). In particular, out of the total arrears (113 billion euros), an amount of 5.3 billion euros, i.е. 4.7% is included in some arrangement scheme.
According to the latest available data, the debt to the tax authorities for the 11th month of 2022 amounted to 6.7 billion euros, while the total arrears is 113.3 billion euros, of which 39 billion euros are debts of individuals and 74 billion euros. euro debts of legal entities.
4 million taxpayers
According to statistics, more than 4 million taxpayers (individuals and legal entities) have debts to the tax office, of which 3.8 million taxpayers or 9 out of 10 have overdue debts not exceeding 10,000 euros. In contrast, 0.2% of the state’s debtors or otherwise 8,896 taxpayers owe the Greek state 90.11 billion euros, which is 80% of the total arrears. In fact, 32 of them owe 1.4 billion euros, that is, more than 43.7 million euros each.
Data analysis also shows that only 51.6% of arrears, which corresponds to 44.8 billion euros, are tax arrears (direct and indirect taxes, property taxes, VAT, excises, etc.). The rest of the actual arrears are accounted for by other categories of debt, which have a low level of collection.
farmers
Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis announced the return of the excise tax on agricultural oil for the whole of 2023 during a press conference in Kozani. “I agreed with the Ministry of Finance. This is a significant intervention of 76 million euros. I also asked the Ministry of Rural Development to “run through” all outstanding issues related to compensation as quickly as possible so that we do not have unresolved issues from the past,” the Prime Minister added.
