CYPRUS TAX NEWS: ASSESSMENT AND COLLECTION OF TAXES LAW AMENDED



To improve tax compliance, strengthen tax collection and provide additional
enhanced powers to the Commissioner of Taxation, Cyprus recently amended its
Assessment and Collection of Taxes Law.

A summary of the amendments is outlined below:

 1. Submission of Tax returns

From the tax year 2020 onwards, all individuals with a gross income that falls
under the provisions of Article 5 of the Income Tax Law are obliged to submit a
personal income tax return.

Gross income that falls under the provisions of Article 5 of the Income Tax Law
includes, amongst others, salaries, rents, royalties, pensions, dividends,
interest and profits from share dealings (before any deductions, reliefs and
credits) which may be exempt from the income tax and/or special contribution for
defence. The Council of Ministers is also empowered to issue decrees which will
specify which categories of taxpayers with a total annual gross income below the
taxable threshold of €19.500 will be exempted from the obligation to submit a
tax return.

Up until tax year 2019, individuals with gross income not exceeding €19.500
(tax-free threshold) were not obliged to submit a personal income tax return,
unless they received a notice/request for submission.

 

 2. Submission deadlines of income tax returns and the payment of income tax for
    tax years 2020 onwards

For tax years beginning 1 January 2020, the due filing date for individuals,
whether filing electronically or otherwise, and the due payment date is 31 July
of the year following the tax year.

For individuals and companies who are obliged to file tax returns based on
audited financial statements, the due filing date is 15 months from the relevant
tax year end (e.g. for the tax year 2020, the due filing date is 31 March 2022)
and the due payment date is 1 August of the year following the relevant tax
year.

Summary of the above deadlines:

 

Taxpayer Tax Return Submission Deadline for Tax Return Payment of Tax
Individuals Form TD1 31 July of the year following the relevant tax year 31 July
of the year following the relevant tax year Companies and individuals with an
obligation to prepare audited FS Form TD1 (self-employed)/ Form TD4 15 months
from the end of the relevant tax year 1 August of the year following the
relevant tax year

 3. Employer’s return

The new due filing date of the Employer’s Return (Form TD7), which has to be
submitted electronically, is the 31 May of the year following the tax year
(instead of 31 July of the year following the tax year, which was the due filing
date for tax years up to and including 2019).

There is also a new provision that clarifies that emoluments include the deemed
benefit from loans to directors/shareholders and their related individuals is
considered as “remuneration” and should be included in the Employer’s return.

 

 4. Change of taxpayer’s data

Taxpayers must notify the Tax Department of any changes to the information they
have submitted upon tax registration, within 60 days from the date of change.

 

 5. Submission of a revised tax return

Taxpayers can submit a revised tax declaration for tax years 2020 onwards,
within 3 years from the submission deadline of the relevant tax declaration and
only if the revision arises:

 * as a result of claiming a relief, deduction or tax credit; or
 * as a result of correcting an error; or
 * for the purposes of being consistent with the provisions of the tax laws.

Irrespective of the above, a revised tax return cannot be submitted during a tax
examination or a tax audit of the relevant tax return.

A taxpayer must settle any tax liability arising from the revision, within 30
days from the submission of the revised return.

For tax years up to and including 2019, revised tax returns for which the
submission deadline has passed, will be accepted by the Tax Department if they
are submitted within 6 months from the date of entry into force of the amending
law, i.e. up to 19 February 2021.

 

 6. Obligations of Cyprus incorporated but non-Cyprus tax resident companies

 Cyprus incorporated but non-Cyprus tax resident companies must inform the
Commissioner of Taxation of the state of their business activities within 60
days of incorporation through a specific form to be issued.

 

 7. Powers of the Commissioner of Taxation

The Commissioner of Taxation has the power to request the submission of:

 * tax returns and any supporting documentation as well as
 * a detailed statement of assets and liabilities (capital statement) of a
   taxpayer, his/her spouse and of any dependents, covering a period not
   exceeding 6 years. The period under review can be extended to 12 years in
   case of fraud or wilful default.

 

 8. Tax inspections

The Commissioner of Taxation has the authority to enter and inspect business
premises at a reasonable time, without providing a notice to the relevant
person.

 

 9. Accepting payments through credit cards

 Certain businesses that will be determined in a Decree to be issued by the
Council of Ministers, will not be allowed to refuse payment by credit card. In
order to meet this requirement, they would need to have the appropriate
equipment, made available from licensed credit card payment providers. From 21
February 2021, in case of non-compliance, an administrative fine of up to €2.000
will be imposed.

 

 10. No refund in case of non-compliance with VAT obligations

 No tax refund will be paid until there is compliance with the filing of VAT
returns for periods up to the end of the tax year during which the examination
of the tax year of the refund was initiated.

 

 11. Public lottery program

Transactions made using credit cards or other electronic means of payment for
the purchase of goods or the receipt of payments are taken into consideration
for participation in a public lottery program (lotteries), through which the
winners will be rewarded with cash or in kind prizes.

The details of the program will be determined by a Decree to be issued by the
Council of Ministers.
