Main Offences Against Public Finances and Social Security

  • Tax fraud: Includes evasion and avoidance through falsified documentation, undeclared income, false statements, or the use of irregular corporate structures to hide assets.
  • Social Security fraud: Involves conduct that prevents correct contributions or manipulates information to unlawfully obtain benefits, such as public subsidies or pensions.
  • Offences against the Treasury: Criminal acts that harm tax collection, punishable by prison sentences, heavy fines, and additional sanctions.
  • Asset concealment and evasion: Acts designed to hide assets or income from tax authorities, affecting fiscal transparency and enforcement.

Legal Consequences and Sanctions

These crimes are punished with substantial fines, imprisonment, and, in the case of legal entities, administrative penalties such as dissolution, closure of premises, or disqualification from future commercial activity. In addition, these offences often result in serious reputational damage for individuals and businesses.
