Tax officials assault Mykonos and find tax fraud galore
- Written by E.Tsiliopoulos
The streets and beaches of Mykonos are "burning" from tax bureau spot checks under operation "Triaina" (trident), as officials are turning up cases of blatant tax evasion.
Two and one POS accounts were discovered in branches of a well-known international brand of luxury clothing and accessories in Chora and in the Nammos Village, which were linked to accounts in Switzerland! The POSs were seized, while the staff of the branches came under scrutiny, in order to ascertain the provisions of the labor and insurance legislation, as they are primarily Spanish nationals who are insured with the insurance institution of their country.
Hoteliers in Mykonos will have to do laundry by hand for 48 hours and, after a big laundry business - serving all hotel units for sheets and towels, was closed for 2 days. According to the information, the audit revealed that it had not issued receipts for a total amount of EUR 13,000.
Well known Kahlua bar at Paragka was also shut down for 48 hours, for non-issuance of receipts worth 3,500 euros, while during the check it was also found that the shop selling sea items, the goods were not accompanied by the foreseen manifests.
During the check-up at the Catherine luxury restaurant, it was found that the company had unpaid debts of EUR 380,000, and with the help of bailiffs there was a seizure of approximately EUR 19,000 on the spot.
The teams of tax officials, Financial Police officers and bailiffs will extend their presence in Mykonos due to findings and will follow with a new round of checks on another Cycladic island, with information stating that "Triaina" will strike Santorini.
