Our solutions
Submission of notification of bank accounts used in respect of transactions subject to Slovak VAT to the Slovak tax office
VAT control of bank accounts
The tax office is entitled to demand from a company payment of VAT which was not paid by its supplier to the state budget if the company has paid the invoiced amount to a supplier’s bank account that is not listed in the register of bank accounts on the Financial Administration’s portal.
