Tax authorities

Tax authorities are government bodies tasked with implementing tax laws and overseeing the proper collection of revenue. Their responsibilities usually cover activities such as determining tax liabilities, gathering payments, performing audits, issuing compliance-related communications, approving refunds, and ensuring taxpayers follow statutory rules.
