“If a person declares his registered properties includes four cases, the system should be able to verify the statement based on real-time information received from the State Deeds and Properties Registration Organization, noting that the taxpayer has more registered properties and has to pay taxes,” Dezhpasand continued.

Emphasizing that all the cost incurred is not just for mechanizing the tax system and the ultimate objective is to find a breakthrough from the current situation and move towards a smart tax system, he remarked the least he expects from the Tax Affairs Organization in this regard is to have the electronic tax collection project implemented by the end of the 12th government.

A key result of a smart tax collection system is healthy payment and collection of taxes in the country’s economy as well as trapping the evaders in a tax net, he went on to say, adding this needed more serious cooperation among government agencies and benefiting from the advice of the taxpayers in the private sector who file on time.
