Renewed National Tax and Customs Administration to be launched next year
Change language:
The new, reformed National Tax and Customs Administration will be launched as early as January 1, 2016, said PM Viktor Orbán during a closed government meeting in August. According to an anonymous source who was present at the meeting, the NTCA will either be a state secretariat or it will be part of the government agency.
If the NTCA will be a state secretariat then the Ministry of National Economy will continue monitoring it, but if it becomes part of the government agency, it will be overseen by the Prime Minister’s Office, currently led by János Lázár.
According to several politicians, it is unnecessary to spend so much extra money on the NTCA as 80% of incoming taxes is “problem free”, and the remaining 20% should get all the spare attention. They say that it would be best and cheapest if the NTCA was part of the government agency.
