The new electronic procedure has begun for lifting bank account seizures imposed by the tax administration for overdue debts to the state.

The new decision of the Independent Authority for Public Revenue specifies in detail the method of submitting the application, the services that examine the request, as well as the procedure by which the accounts of those who meet the requirements of the law are released.

In order for the request to be accepted, the following must be met simultaneously: 25% of the seizure debt must have been paid (including interest and surcharges), the balance of the seizure debts must have been settled in installments or be under suspension of payment (based on law, court decision or interim order), and all other overdue debts of the taxpayer (individual or from joint and several liability) must have been settled or paid off by the time the application is submitted.

The process is now mainly carried out electronically through the myAADE platform, with the aim of faster service to taxpayers and reducing bureaucracy.

Debtors who are entitled to having the seizure lifted must submit an application through the “My Requests” application on the myAADE digital portal.
