Standard Audit File for Tax– basic issues

The goal of implementing SAF-T is to improve and extend the tax and treasuryaudit proces and to increase the effectiveness and better identification of key non-compliance areas in tax reporting.
SAF-T brought significant benefits to tax authorities in countries where it wasimplemented. The most important benefits are as follows:
• reduction of costs and duration of audit (ability to conduct audit remotely);• abnormalities specified on the whole sample – increased effectiveness;• ability to conduct audit of few taxes at once (eg. CIT-VAT comparision)
SAF-T works worldwide in two models:
• on demand• compulsory periodic data handling to the tax authorities
SAF-T is based on a file in .xml form (according to OECD SAF-T 2.0 standard).
Taxpayers will send file to Ministry of Finance Gateaway or on an external datastorage such as DVD or memory stick.

From 1.07.2016 ≥ 250 or > 50 mln EUR and > 43 mln EUR
From 1.07.2018 ≥ 9 or > 2 mln EUR and > 2 mln EUR
Reporting will concern taxpayer’s tax books.

Standard Audit File for Tax– final vs. testing structures
8
Ministry of Finance implemented some changes in final version of SAF-T structures incomparison to testing structures:
• remodelling of the entire ‘VAT registers (sales and purchases)‘ structure, presently thisstructure is a tabular representation of current VAT Return
• removal of selected items, e.g. SAF-T data source system information previously (fromHeader section) is no longer required
• introduction of new items, e.g. entirely new section related to inventory movement inWarehouse structure
• more detailed field definitions, e.g. introduction of fields ‘DataOd’ (DateFrom) and‘DataDo’ (DateTo) requiring exact start and end date of financial period for which datais being provided.
The final SAF-T structures were modified in order to enable more accuratedata reporting.
In comparison to testing version of SAF-T structures, there are much lesspositions that are obligatory.
