Conducts structured tax audits to verify taxpayer declarations and detect discrepancies, fraud, or non-compliance.
What We Do

Conducts audits to verify tax compliance and detect irregularities

The Tax Audit Division is charged with planning and executing detailed audits to verify the accuracy of tax declarations submitted by individuals and businesses. It conducts both document-based and on-site audits, identifies new taxpayers, and ensures tax compliance with applicable laws. By examining financial records and comparing them against declared revenues, the division strengthens fiscal integrity and detects evasion.
This division reviews taxpayer objections, recommends adjustments, and initiates mandatory assessments when discrepancies are found. It operates through specialized offices responsible for auditing mining concessions, rental income, vehicle taxes, and new taxpayer identification. The division provides technical recommendations, enforces corrective measures, and submits comprehensive reports to the Executive Office.
