- The Austrian Ministry of Finance generated approximately EUR 185 million in tax revenue in 2023 using artificial intelligence (AI).
- The Predictive Analytics Competence Centre (PACC), a special unit within the Ministry, utilizes predictive analytics and AI to detect tax evasion and identify non-compliant individuals and businesses.
- In 2023, the PACC analyzed around 6.5 million cases from various tax administration sectors, leading to the discovery of false information and fraud attempts related to income tax, corporation tax, and value-added tax (VAT).
- As a result, the investigators realized approximately EUR 185 million in tax income, and around 27.5 million cases were investigated for compliance violations, including improper subsidies and benefits as well as bogus companies.
- The PACC plans to expand its analytical capabilities, including the use of machine learning methods such as generative AI, to enhance the efficiency and effectiveness of tax administration in Austria.
