ANAF President Lucian Heyush says that in the first ten months of this year, audits of large and medium-sized taxpayers by fiscal anti-fraud inspectors led to the discovery of additional taxable amounts of one billion euros, according to News.ro.

“We, like ANAF, our monthly collection task is somewhere around six billion euros. (…) In fact, our main activity at ANAF is the audits of large taxpayers, medium taxpayers, and I can tell you that in the first ten months, with my colleagues in the anti-fraud inspection, I have established almost billions of euros in additional amounts as a result of this control, because that is where, in fact, there is a lot of tax evasion,” said Lucian Geiusz on Digi 24 on Wednesday night.

The head of ANAF referred to the “marginal” verification actions of persons who own large assets.

Lucian Heyush recalled that after he headed the institution, he asked that tax inspectors no longer focus on small taxpayers and “close their eyes” to large evasions.
