- In Malta, failing to file VAT/tax returns or pay taxes for years can lead to VAT summonses or tax judicial letters from the Commissioner for Tax and Customs.
- If these notices are ignored, the matter can become criminal, with possible fines or imprisonment.
- These notices are court orders under Act XXIII of 1998 and usually require payment within days or weeks.
- A judicial reply can be filed to object and indicate intent to regularize the situation.
- Sciberras Advocates can assist with filings, corrections, negotiations, responses to notices, and payment plans.
