What clients ask before filing
What are the chances of cancelling the decision?
It depends on the evidence and the procedure followed during the audit. Many notice-decisions are cancelled on procedural grounds or because the tax authority misread the documents.
Can I go straight to court?
Yes. An administrative appeal is optional, and you can file a claim to the administrative court directly. We choose the route based on your case and deadlines.
Do I have to pay while the appeal is pending?
Generally no. While an administrative or court appeal is pending, the tax liability is not considered agreed and does not have to be paid. Penalties may still accrue if you lose, and we explain the risk for your case.
How long do I have to file an administrative appeal?
Generally ten business days from receiving the notice-decision. Missing the deadline makes the amount agreed, so contact us as soon as you receive it.
What is a tax notice-decision?
A decision of the tax authority that assesses additional tax, penalties or fines, usually issued after a tax audit.
