The countdown to the “moment of truth” has begun! The AADE portal is now open for this year’s tax returns. The landscape has shifted dramatically, offering less bureaucracy, faster refunds, and significant incentives for the “early birds.”
- The “Speed Bonus”
⏳ This year, acting quickly is more rewarding than ever. If you choose to pay your tax in a single lump sum by July 31st, the discount rates are as follows:
- 4% Discount if submitted by May 15th.
- 3% Discount if submitted by June 15th.
- 2% Discount if submitted by July 15th..
2. “Automatic” Filing: A Word of Caution
For 1.5 million employees and pensioners, the tax return is now pre-filled.
⚠️ ATTENTION: Experience from last year has shown that “automatic” is a relative term. Corrections are almost always necessary, as errors are frequently found in the data uploaded to the system.
⚠️ Check your e-mail: You will receive an official notification if your return falls into the pre-filled category..
Do not take it for granted—verification is essential to avoid future complications!
4. “Fast Track” Tax Refunds 💶
If you are entitled to a refund and have no outstanding debts, the money will be credited to your account on a weekly basis.
The Golden Rule: You must have your IBAN declared on the myAADE digital portal for the transfer to go through.
⏳Note: The final deadline for submission remains July 15th
