Frequently asked questions
An audit report records the tax authority's findings and conclusions; it is not the same instrument as a tax notice-decision. The notice-decision is a separate administrative decision which may determine liabilities or penalties and has its own challenge route. After receiving a report, check the facts, primary documents and current objections procedure rather than waiting passively for the next instrument. When a notice-decision arrives, record the receipt date and verify the current deadline and method of challenge separately. The actual consequences can be established only from the complete documents and rules then in force.
The deadline should not be recalled from memory or taken from an old article. Identify the instrument, issuing authority, procedure, date and method of service, together with any earlier objections or appeal. Retain the envelope, electronic confirmation or other receipt evidence and immediately prepare a calendar for both administrative and court routes. Current rules and the official service are checked on the assessment date because different instruments follow different procedures. If there is uncertainty, obtain urgent individual advice rather than waiting until the last day or relying on an unofficial calculator.
The core package covers one business transaction and usually includes reviewing the notice or decision, testing the transaction's factual model, identifying missing primary records, and preparing an explanation with an organised evidence pack. An existing refusal, risk designation, multiple transactions, an administrative appeal or proceedings requires separate assessment. The scope does not automatically include reconstructing the entire accounting record. Before filing, the current form, official electronic route and deadline are checked. Preparation of the pack does not guarantee registration of the VAT invoice or adjustment, or the tax authority's decision.
Court proceedings may be considered where the administrative route does not remedy the issue, the decision already creates material exposure or delay could weaken protection. Before issuing, review the audit report, notice-decision or other instrument, service evidence, current deadlines, primary records, earlier correspondence and the dispute's commercial proportionality. Representation is undertaken by an appointed practising attorney-at-law following the firm's initial conflict screening, the attorney's independent check and proper agreement and authority. Issuing a claim does not automatically suspend every consequence or guarantee a judgment; protective steps depend on the documents.
