Requirement for Financial Security for VAT, A-tax, and AM Contributions Registration Upheld by Tax Appeals Board

• The case concerned whether the Danish Tax Agency was justified in requiring a financial security of 63,078 DKK as a condition for a company’s registration for VAT, A-tax, and AM-contributions.
• The main shareholder had previously owned another company denied registration for the same taxes within the last 5 years.
• The Tax Appeals Board found a significant risk of loss to the state due to the company’s registration in the restaurant sector, similarity in company names, and the spouse’s employment and previous tax debt.
• The Board concluded the conditions for requiring financial security were met and upheld the Tax Agency’s decision.
