Digital Transformation of Tax Administrations in the EU

DIGITAX

The Digital Single Market Strategy initiative identified eGovernment as one of the key elements to maximise the growth potential of the digital economy and to achieve an inclusive digital Europe. The EU announced the launch of an eGovernment Action Plan 2016-2020, setting out the vision, underlying principles and policy priorities, highlighting the Modernisation of public administration with ICT.

As part of the first pillar, the use of disruptive technologies (block-chain, big data, IoT, virtual reality, AI, etc.) in public administrations is growing and can be very beneficial. Tax Administrations have been very active testing new technologies to fight tax avoidance, but without analysing the impact in the taxpayers´rights.

That´s why, even if in the tax field these technologies can enhance a greater tax, is necessary to ensure taxpayers rights, within the EU and globally. However, the real potential impact of such technologies and the ways in which they can disrupt the existing landscape of tax collection are largely unknown.

That´s why and connected with action 24, the main objective of our project will be an specific Digital Government for Citizens Charter related with tax collection, including what can Citizens reasonably expect from these services, from new technologies and from the Tax Administrations using or offering them. This Charter will provide citizens with a set of principles aimed at clarifying what Citizens may reasonably expect.

This Charter will be based in the outputs of the following areas of research:

  • Digital transformation of Tax Administrations
  • New taxpayers rights for a digital Administration era
  • Big data, Artificial inteligence and machine learning for tax fraud avoidance
  • Use of Blockchain by Tax Administration: VAT fraud avoidance
  • Internet of things as tool for tax fraud avoidance (income tax, VAT and customs)
  • International Analysis of Digital transformation of Tax Administrations and New taxpayers’ rights In Comparative law
  • Digital Government taxpayers’ charter.
