NAV: ekáer helps the fair taxpayers

The electronic control system for road freight (ekáer) not only suppresses VAT frauds, but delivers markets to the fair taxpayers – Sinkáné Csendes Ágnes, Tax Director General of the National Tax and Customs Authority said on Thursday at a press conference in Budapest.

In the EU, all states are fighting against VAT frauds. Hungary's situation is special because many countries bordering it and goods can quickly pass through it – Sinkáné Csendes Ágnes pointed out, adding that the VAT frauds are monitored by three interconnected systems. So far, 40 thousand customers requested 1.5 million ekáer numbers. (MTI)
