This tax expert has presented his candidacy as president of AEDAF, the country's main association of tax advisors
From Arthur Andersen to Ashurst, in a three-decade professional career focused on taxation from its international perspective, Eduardo Gracia now presents his candidacy to preside over the Spanish Association of Tax Advisors ( AEDAF ), the main retaining wall of the Tax Agency in its sanctioning activity against individuals and companies.
From his point of view “currently the AEDAF has Email Data the best specialists in tax law in our country . We are an association that denounces the excesses and abuses that the Tax Administration commits against the rights and guarantees of the taxpayer, against which they are completely unprotected."
“I believe that the Treasury should make an effort to listen to the experts , in this way litigation would be reduced in favor of more consensual actions and resolutions. The data indicate that there are nearly 1,000 cases a day that end up in court because the different Tax Agencies in Spain are already the main litigator in our country and, in many cases, this fight against fraud stops being legitimate when it undermines the rights of taxpayers.”
In his opinion, the Taxpayer Defense Council created a few years ago to structure this relationship of the Tax Administration and of which some members of AEDAF are part “ is carrying out interesting work in that scenario. The problem is that it is an organization under the control of the Ministry of Finance, which generates a lack of independence.”
