The Independent Authority for State Revenue (AADE) is getting ready for a big change in the issuance of a tax clearance certificate in order to improve and simplify it for the convenience of taxpayers in their transactions and especially in cases involving real estate transfers or the collection of money from the public sector. The Independent Authority for State Revenue (AADE) in order to identify the problems faced by companies, freelancers and individuals whenever they ask to receive a tax clearance certificate launched a public debate aimed at recording distortions and reforming and simplifying the regulatory framework for issuing the tax clearance certificate. The Independent Authority for State Revenue (AADE) requests thirty minutes of time from citizens, social partners and institutions to answer its questions, to record experiences and to submit their proposals for improving the regulatory framework for issuing tax information. Through the questions, the Independent Authority for State Revenue (AADE) is trying to understand whether the taxpayers are informed about its digital services. Based on the answers, the Authority will evaluate the current system and will take corrective actions. Every taxpayer can find the questionnaire at www.aade.gr/afe and answer anonymously and in full compliance with the rules of personal data protection.
