Limitations on Tax Audits of Officials Related to Corruption Periods

June 18, 2026

The investigation into the responsibilities of seven former officials reveals obstacles in conducting tax audits. The new law allows checks only for periods not exceeding 12 years, thus limiting the capabilities of the anti-corruption authority. This means individuals related to corruption acts that occurred over 12 years ago cannot be audited. The seven officials include former politicians and judges. These developments raise questions about the effectiveness of audits and the authority's ability to ensure transparency.
