The effect of the taxpayer system in dealing with tax evasion/inflation reduction as a result of reforming the tax system

Behrouz Mohebi saidWego With the economic correspondent of Fars news agency, about the launch of Modian system and store terminals, emphasizing that taxation should be done with great accuracy, he clarified: some businesses do not have high profits despite the huge investment that people make. These small points should be considered in taxation.

He added: On the other hand, there are some profitable and intermediary activities in the country, about which clear information is not available, and we should take steps towards collecting taxes from them.

This MP said: One of the promises made by the minister silence Before assuming this position, he was supposed to follow up on the issue of monitoring the flow of goods in the country. It was promised that on the transfer of goods and financial and commercial events in the country Supervision exist and everything becomes clear. If financial and economic transparency is created in the country, the financial transactions of business owners are carefully monitored and the flow of goods can be tracked, the government will get accurate information, this will ensure that people’s rights are not violated and a fairer process in Tax collection should be carried out.

He added: The implementation of the law on store terminals and the taxpayer system leads to the government’s access to transparent information, and it is definitely possible to prevent tax evasion in this way, as well as the basis for collecting taxes from people in proportion to their profits.

Mohibi continued: The tax system can come to the government’s aid to identify traders and middlemen, in this way, heavier taxes can be collected from people who appear in the gap between supply and demand and pocket huge profits. In addition to setting up the Modian system, if we can implement the anti-money laundering law and consider large fines for these people, we can make a great contribution to the country’s economy. Undoubtedly, the start of the taxpayer system is the beginning of the reform and transformation of the country’s tax system.

According to this MP, one of the serious issues of our country is the government budget deficit. With correct taxation, we can move towards increasing the government’s revenues and thus reducing the budget deficit and inflation. Now, due to tax evasion, the government’s income is not at the level it should be, and this causes the monetary base to enter and, as a result, increase inflation in the country.

He added: Taxes are known in the world as a stable source of income and can help governments. In Iran, we can also use this source of income to solve the country’s problems.

Referring to the fact that one of our problems is the calculation of income based on card reader devices, Mohebi clarified: These devices have different functions and are not exclusive. The tax based on the information of these card reader devices is unfair to some extent and has caused complaints from the guilds. In some cases, the tax that we have considered for individuals is sometimes more than 10 times the previous years. People say that they have used these devices for other issues due to lack of information about the fact that the financial transactions of the discussed devices are supposed to be considered for taxation.

Mohebi added: For example, a person transferred an amount from one account to another and this amount was calculated as his income, or for example, a motorcycle repairman buys the equipment himself and the owner of the motorcyclecycle He pays him the amount of the equipment plus the repair cost, the amount related to the motorcycle equipment is also considered as his income and is subject to tax. While that amount was not included in the income of this repairman.

He stated: In this connection, it has been decided that from next year card reader devices will be specialized and used only for special purposes so that no one is wronged.

According to Fars Having an efficient tax system is one of the characteristics of developed countries. Because access to a strong database leads to correct provincial taxation, so that justice is taken into account in taxation, government revenues increase, and by levying heavy taxes from intermediary activities, capital is directed towards production.

According to experts, Iran’s tax system suffers from problems such as lack of access to accurate income information of taxpayers, lack of fair taxation, lack of correct tax orientations, and similar issues. In order to solve this issue, many measures have been taken in the country, but unfortunately, they have not had a favorable result. In this regard, setting up Modian system and connecting store terminals (which will probably be done next week) to this system is on the agenda of the government.

Experts hope that this system can lead to the creation of a strong database of taxpayers’ information and provide the basis for fair taxation in the country. The
