Tax Record in Veličná
Proof of the actual area of land in use
The municipality of Veličná was dealing with a situation typical of many local governments. Manually searching for and comparing real estate data was time-consuming, and in more complicated cases, verification took up to three days of fragmented work. The process involved a laborious search through records alongside dozens of other duties, without any possibility of ongoing monitoring.
The greatest uncertainty arose when verifying the use of agricultural land and monitoring independent farmers.

The municipality needed to obtain reliable evidence of the actual area of land in use in order to demonstrate the discrepancy between the tax return and the actual situation and to have a basis for further action against the taxpayer.
The tax passport helped accurately identify undeclared land areas by combining data from the land registry, land use records, and other sources into verifiable documentation that could be incorporated into internal tax records and reports and serve as relevant supporting documentation for an official notice to the taxpayer.
- Reliable Basis for Tax AssessmentThe Tax Passport uses data directly from the land registry and the PPA records, so its outputs provide legally valid support for decision-making and serve as a suitable basis for assessing taxes based on assessment aids. This provides the municipality with clear and verifiable data that can be used during audits and in the event of any objections raised by taxpayers.
- Significant time savingsWith extensive lists of parcels and co-owners, manually processing the source data used to take entire workdays. The tax registry automatically prepares the source data, eliminating the need for time-consuming reviews of records, searching through the land registry, and manually tracking down lease agreements.
- Financial potential for the municipalityThe tax register helps identify cases where a taxpayer has not reported all of their assets, particularly with regard to agricultural land (pastures, arable land, and small-scale farmland). The municipality can now accurately compare the land registry with actual conditions and may request that the taxpayer file an amended tax return. The result is higher revenue for the budget, as well as the assurance that all data will be recorded correctly during an audit.
- Easy-to-use toolWe are developing the tool's interface in collaboration with local government officials to make it simple and intuitive, thereby reducing its technical complexity.
