The Tax Administration has announced a broad notification campaign that could affect hundreds of thousands of residents. Officials disclosed plans to issue notices to about 328,000 taxpayers who may be obligated to declare certain operations, including the exchange of virtual currencies. The outreach forms part of a revenue drive for the current year and comes with a higher anticipated impact than last year, when roughly 233,000 notices were sent. The agency pointed to the evolving needs of tax compliance in a digital economy and the importance of clarity for those who may have engaged in cryptocurrency transactions or other reportable activities.

In a recent briefing on the 2022 revenue cycle, the Tax Administration indicated that taxpayers who receive these notices hold the option to respond in a manner that aligns with their own circumstances. The official emphasized that taxpayers can take any steps they deem appropriate after reviewing the information, including deciding whether to declare income associated with the notified items. The message underscored that timely and accurate reporting supports proper tax administration, helps ensure fair treatment for compliant filers, and reduces the risk of later adjustments.

The Tax Administration will also issue reminders about reporting income earned abroad. The outreach covers exchanges of information under international agreements with other states, a program designed to facilitate transparency and cross-border tax compliance. The agency noted that these information-sharing arrangements help verify income and ensure correct tax treatment for individuals who may have financial ties to foreign jurisdictions.

Additional notices will be sent to individuals who own rental properties and may have taxable income associated with those assets. While the data system excludes certain tourist rental arrangements already captured in existing tax records, the overall goal remains to illuminate all relevant income streams. In this broader context, property owners can review their records and ensure that any rental activity is properly documented and reported to minimize discrepancies in the filing process.
