Over the past few months, cases have become more frequent when tax authorities send requests for explanations in connection with the ownership of foreign assets — accounts in banks and brokers, CFC, real estate; and the receipt of the corresponding income.The requirements are formed on the basis of information received as part of the automatic exchange between countries. As a result, information about previously undeclared income may be disclosed, which will entail conducting an on-site tax audit of the entire structure of the taxpayer's income.
This, in turn, threatens with substantial additional charges and fines.We recommend that you carefully consider such requests, and when you receive them, promptly contact specialists in order to prevent on—site tax audits and additional charges.
