Helping Hands – Cross border tax recovery within the EU

Under the Mutual Assistance Directive introduced in 2010, Revenue has assisted EU member states with tax recovery on 425 occasions. On the flip side Revenue has asked EU tax authorities to recover tax on its behalf under this Directive on 87 occasions. The CCAB-I has responded to European Commission’s survey on the effectiveness of mutual assistance.

The CCAB-I called for the lower limit of €1,500 for cross border tax debt requests to be increased to €10,000 given the resources necessary for one tax authority to pursue a tax debt on behalf of another tax authority.
