2. Collection

Since August 2020, the General Directorate of Internal Taxes has been focused on strengthening trust and transparency for Dominican citizens through the efficient administration of their resources and promoting tax compliance, through closeness and openness towards taxpayers and control measures through risk perception. These strategies have been the impetus to guarantee compliance with the budget goal during the period August 2020 until December 2022.

Although the Tax Administration began in a stage of great challenges and challenges, after a period of economic slowdown and health crisis in 2020, this was not an obstacle to the implementation of economic and health strategies such as the flexibility of mobility measures, the execution of the National

Vaccination Plan, the monetary stimuli implemented and the tax facilities granted, among others, which allowed a recovery in collection, returning to levels similar to those observed prior to the start of the pandemic.

When evaluating the behavior of collections in the period August 2020 to December 2022, it is observed that the effective collection exceeded more than one hundred percent of what was budgeted by the Ministry of Finance in the reformulated estimate. This performance is also perceived when evaluating collections with the original estimate for the years 2021 and 2022, with a compliance of 125.1% and 110.9% respectively. Similarly, this positive behavior is evident when comparing the interannual growth of collections.

In the period from August to December 2020, the observed collection was RD$200,163.8 million, presenting a compliance of 113.0%, for a positive difference in relation to the reformulated estimate of RD$23,047.4 million.

By the year 2021, the Dominican economy begins to perceive both an economic and health recovery when compared to the year 2020, thus allowing the relaxation of curfew measures and increased mobility. The above allowed the collection of the year 2021 to be RD$607,446.4 million, for a compliance of 101.0%, equivalent to RD$5,891.8 million above the reformulated estimate. This year's collection was boosted by Barrick's payments for RD$28,721.5 million, advances from Financial Entities RD$20,000.0 million, income received by Law no. 46-20 on Transparency and Patrimonial Revaluation, of RD$29,594.5 million and the liquidation of Income Tax in April 2021.

In 2022, different actions and measures were carried out to further promote tax compliance, such as the large-scale implementation of the

Electronic Billing model, the transformation of the Virtual Office, the reduction of service response times, new strategies control using the risk classification method, among others, thus allowing an accumulated collection of RD$656,812.1 million, for a compliance with collections of 102.0%, equivalent to RD$13,010.5 million more than the estimate in the reformulated General State Budget for the 2022.

In short, the period from August 2020 to December 2022 has benefited from fiscal and health strategies implemented by the authorities to mitigate the effects of the Pandemic, serving as a boost for budget compliance for this period. On average, the DGII contributed 72% of the total income obtained by the State through the collection entities and which is used transparently by the Government to cover the actions of providing public goods and services for the population and carrying out infrastructure works and investments, as well as for the payment of the public debt.

3.2.7 Implementation of the Tax Culture Week with University Students:

EIt is a project designed to promote fiscal awareness, develop in students a critical attitude, voluntary and reflective compliance with social responsibility.

Another of the strategies developed was because of the Covi-19 pandemic, which prompted us to innovate, creating new ways of approaching the university public; creating virtual training of open call at the national level, on different tax topics. This modality provides the facility for the university student to participate in the subject of his interest according to his availability of time, and for personal interest in terms of expanding his knowledge. The calendar is shared through mass mailings to the universities, as well as using social networks. This program facilitates activities from the basics, which is to understand the Dominican Tax System, the process for formalization, and the main taxes and tax procedures.

Also included was the presence of tax educational materials in university libraries nationwide, a club or specialized study groups to strengthen the filling of forms, learn in depth about specialized topics, as well as provide practical activities that the university requires strengthening, on tax processes. This program is made known through mass mailings to universities, as well as through social networks.

4.7 Prevention of Money Laundering and Terrorist Financing

In the last three years, the General Directorate of Internal Revenue, in its capacity as supervisory entity in matters of prevention of asset laundering, financing of terrorism and proliferation of weapons of mass destruction (PLAFT), in accordance with Law no. 155-17, has carried out supervisions, all with a risk-based approach, aimed at different sectors of non-financial reporting entities, which has gradually led to compliance with the obligations by reporting entities.

As a result of the supervisions, administrative sanctioning procedures have been initiated against those regulated entities that are not complying with the provisions related to the prevention of money laundering. In the period, format 647 was published for the submission of statistical information for risk analysis that obligated subjects must send quarterly, as well as Annex E for RNC registration forms (RC-01 and RC-02), to be able to identify taxpayers who carry out activities that make them non-financial reporting entities under the supervision of the DGII.

n addition, the DGII has been immersed in the implementation of a Software for the

measurement of risks, which will allow a more Iaccurate measurement of the risks of the obligated subjects under its orbit, interrelating quantitative and qualitative elements of the entities, with variables and essential factors of the PLAFT system, thus ensuring that the supervisions have a specific scope, mainly covering the entities with the highest risks.

In compliance with the commitment that supervisors have in this matter to develop regulations that contain the details of the obligations that obligated subjects must comply with, the DGII has issued general regulations 03-2022, 06-2022 and 07-2022; the first one is focused on the obligation of the obligated subjects to carry out external audits of their PLAFT program and the last two focused on the enforceability of the reliable proof of payment.

For the obligated subjects, the employees of this DGII and the public to become aware of the regulations issued, as well as the entire legal framework established in terms of asset laundering prevention, an intense day of training nationwide.

4.8 Modification project of Title I of the Tax Code

The current Title I of the Tax Code of the Dominican Republic dates to 1992 and the legal progress and experiences acquired since then make it necessary to implement a new Title I, establishing better provisions that ensure and preserve the rights and obligations of taxpayers and taxpayers. tax, as well as those of the Tax Administration.

In this sense, in March 2022 the Draft Modification of the reform law of Title I of the Tax Code was presented with the objective of updating and introducing improvements to streamline processes and guarantee the rights of taxpayers.

7,801 Supervisions Fines Published Rules Trainings (People) 8 66 3 Management Report August 2020 - December 2022

Some of the most relevant points that are included in the Modification Project of Title I, are:

• Implementation of the catalog of taxpayer rights in the framework of compliance with their tax and formal obligations.

• The surcharges, which are currently 10% for the first month and an infinite 4%, are proposed to be set at a fixed 3% and cannot exceed the amount of 100% of the tax.

• Establishment of interest in favor of the taxpayer in reimbursement procedures where the delay is due to the administration.

5. Advances in auditing

• Establishment of electronic administration, to streamline the reception and delivery services by the OFV.

• Creation of facilitation instruments and others are improved in the payment as a form of extinction of the tax obligation.

• Improvement of the compensation procedure so that excesses or balances in favor can be compensated with any type of tax.

5.1 Risk-Based Tax Compliance Management Model

One of the great challenges that all Tax Administration faces is the materialization of non-compliance with tax obligations by taxpayers, this accompanied by the erosion of tax revenues because of tax evasion and avoidance whose consequence is the reduction of State income to finance public spending and the implementation of social and economic policies for the development of a country.

Recent figures from the tax system of the Dominican Republic place the level of tax non-compliance at around 40% in the Tax on the Transfer of Industrialized Goods and Services (ITBIS), in the case of Income Tax (ISR) a non-compliance is estimated 60% and 40% for the Selective Taxes on Alcohol and Tobacco. (See Default Estimate in Dom. Rep.).

Due to the foregoing, the tax administration has chosen to implement novel solutions provided with the successful experiences of modern tax administrations such as: Australia, Canada, USA, Chile, Argentina and Brazil, which carry out the task of taxes under a "Risk-Based Tax Compliance Management Model" which is a process that allows obtaining a comprehensive view of the tax system with the objective of increasing compliance with tax obligations, through strengthening the knowledge of the taxpayer and the analysis of the causes that explain their tax behavior in order to design targeted control and treatment actions that allow the elimination or mitigation of non-compliance.

This methodology proposes to align the control and treatment actions to the level of tax risk that the taxpayer represents.

The Risk-based Tax Compliance Management Model (MGCT in Spanish) is designed to optimize the allocation of resources to manage tax compliance. Its execution requires decision-making at different levels of management, the strategic and tactical levels. For its part, the operational level, which corresponds to the execution of the treatments, allows feedback on the decisions adopted by the different instances.

The implementation of the MGCT consists of different phases, applied through the Tax Risk Management Process. These phases are: Identification, Analysis, Prioritization and Consolidation, Treatment and Evaluation. On the other hand, as a transversal tool for all stages of the model, the Global Risk Classification (CRG) is constructed, one of the main inputs for the analysis and assignment of risk-based treatments.

Report August 2020 - December 2022

Those that have been developed during the 2020-2022 period are described below.

• Identification of Specific Risks and Gaps: in this process we proceeded to recognize and describe the tax risks and the associated gaps that may impact the achievement of the objectives of the General Directorate of Internal Taxes (DGII), for which multiple tools and instruments have been worked on that allow the identification and classification of the different risks and breaches, resulting in the development of:

• Compilation of Tax Risks (Global and Specific).

• Compilation of Tax Treatment actions.

• Survey of Tax Gaps that detect non-compliance by Taxpayers.

• Analysis and assessment of Risks and Tax Gaps: includes a characterization of the taxpayers that present the tax obligation under study, the levels of compliance and other characteristics of the objective universe. It also includes the study of the causes of non-compliance and the detection of risky behaviors and/or characteristics of each taxpayer, in addition, the probabilities that a tax non-compliance could materialize, and the consequence or potential monetary loss in collection, the progress achieved in said development are:

• The characterization and valuation of Tax Risks.

• Construction of the Institutional File of Specific Risks.

• Construction of the Institutional Catalog of Tax Treatments.

• Preparation of the Tax Treatment Assignment Policy.

• Global Tax Risk Classification (CRG in Spanish): taxpayers were categorized based on the probability of tax non-compliance and the monetary consequence that said non-compliance represents for the administration.

• High risk: high probability of default and high monetary consequence

• Medium risk: moderate probability of default and moderate or low monetary consequence

• Key risk: moderate or low probability of default and high monetary consequence

• Low risk: low probability of default and low monetary consequence.

• An average of 1,321,979 taxpayers per fiscal period have been classified, covering large, medium and small taxpayers, the result of the classification has allowed us to observe that an average of 74.4% of those classifieds are low risk, 21.7% medium risk, 2.5 % key risk and 1.4% high risk.

Management Report August 2020 - December 2022

• Tax Risk Profile Dashboard of the (SIC): A tool for internal use was developed where tax officials can consult the risk classification of taxpayers, as well as the main factors of tax non-compliance that explain their risk profile; as well as the treatments applied to them.

• Catalog of Tax Obligations: an instrument was prepared that compiles all the tax obligations that a taxpayer must comply with in relation to the formal duties (registration, information, declaration and payment) defined in the legal and regulatory framework of the tax administration.

• Map of Gaps in Tax Obligations: an interactive monitor (instrument) was designed and developed that shows indicators of tax non-compliance according to the formal duty of the taxpayer (registration, information, declaration and payment) in said instrument it can determine the percentage of taxpayers that comply their obligations on date, out of date and even those who have not complied with them.

• Identification of Economically Active Taxpayers: Taxpayers who represent a tax interest for the tax administration were identified, thus developing the economically active brand whose scope is all natural or legal persons that carry out an economic activity that incurs in the generation of a tax obligation. and their amounts or annual income exceed the tax exemption (RD$416,220.00) stipulated in the regulatory framework.

• Systematization and automation of the Process of Prioritization and Consolidation of Risks and Tax Gaps: It is a tool that allows receiving, processing and analyzing the information sent by the analysis areas on the risks and non-compliances identified for each taxpayer, for the execution of the Prioritization Process and Consolidation. This continuous process is being developed through database management and exploitation systems, such as SQL Server, RStudio, among others.

• Consulting on the prioritization process (P and C): The objective of this consultancy is to strengthen the new risk-based tax compliance management model, in relation to the process of prioritization and consolidation of tax risks. Among the main purposes of this consultancy is to understand how to effectively and efficiently allocate resources for compliance management, it being necessary for the process to take measurements of the effectiveness of their execution cost treatments and execution capacities, as well as having risk and gap assessments that are comparable to each other, to have good approximations to the potential benefits that would be derived from the management.

• Policy Proposal for Risk-Based Tax Compliance Management: The purpose of creating this document is to establish the guidelines that will govern the Tax Compliance Management Model (MGCT)

within the institution's internal policies and procedures. This model seeks to achieve greater compliance with tax obligations through a comprehensive and efficient system, as well as establishing the general guidelines as stipulated in the 2020-2024 Institutional Strategic Plan.

• Pilot for the implementation of the Tax Compliance Model based on Risks: Dispatch to the Local Administration of Higüey of a list of taxpayers with their respective tax non-compliances, extracted through the process of Prioritization and Consolidation of to be treated.

• Treatment Action Consolidation Report: This report contains a statistical analysis of a structured process in which the different treatment actions are consolidated: corrective, preventive and facilitation carried out by the tax administration. This report contains the following topics:

• Authorization of the Transferable Tax Credit (refund) of the Cinematographic Activities Companies: Within the framework of the improvement of the internal processes of the business areas of the institution, the Tax Risk Management together with the Special Regimes Management developed an Application of Simplified Review, to respond in less time to the requests for approval of the "Transferable Tax Credit Certificate" and with it, the return of the balances generated.

Broadly speaking, the application allows (1) to unify the information from different sources, (2) to build a history of the film productions evaluated, (3) to identify the means of

payment and invoices that have a higher level of risk. The main achievements have been:

• The automation of the information sent by the companies belonging to this Special Regime.

• The Implementation of a methodology that allows to classify based on risk the means of payment and invoices sent by the companies covered by the regime.

• The simplification of the review and audit processes of the films sent by the companies. The time was reduced from 60 days (audit and response) to 25 days, on average.

The application process of Law 46-20 was completely successful. A collection of RD$29,020.8 million (twenty-nine thousand and twenty million Dominican pesos) were reached since its entry into force. Of the amount collected by this law, a total of RD$23,347.92 million entered during the year 2021, while as of December 31, 2020, RD$5,672.85 million had entered under the same legislation.
