External Audit

A field audit is an exceptionally detailed and comprehensive tax examination aimed at accurately determining the tax base and the tax liabilities of the taxpayer. This process involves the review of books, records, documents, financial statements, tax returns, and other relevant materials to verify their accuracy and consistency with actual circumstances. However, the field audit extends beyond the mere analysis of documents: business operations, inventory, bank accounts, and all legal and economic activities related to taxable activities are also subjected to a detailed review. Furthermore, the audit is not limited to the taxpayer alone; it may also include natural and legal persons who maintain legal relationships with the taxpayer.
