“Türkiye is 20 years ahead of some countries in e-transformation. Europe is 10 years behind. Türkiye is the second country after Brazil to complete the e-transformation in terms of taxation. Many countries such as Italy took Türkiye as an example in the digitalization of taxation. In fact, Türkiye has become a model for many countries in this regard. It examines the Italian model in studies on the digitization of taxation in the European Union, but Italy has already taken the Turkish model as an example. It is envisaged that a model between Türkiye and Latin America models will be proposed in the studies that will end at the end of the year. This shows how successful Türkiye is. The Turkish model is especially preferred in terms of easier integration of SMEs into the system.” said Christian Den Var Valk.

Because data becomes increasingly important in times of crisis like COVID to assist firms who are struggling. Turkish tax administration gathers current information from businesses. Businesses can use this real-time information while taking preventative action. This is impossible for Germany and the Netherlands. since no such system exists. Therefore, it is clear that governments have a lot more data-related options. Data must be treated as a gold mine by the government. We shall observe a global increase in harmony in the digital tax environment during the next 20 years. Data analytics will be another area where Türkiye will profit from this advanced degree.”
