We hereby bring to your attention:
The General Directorate of Internal Taxes of the Ministry of Finance, through its website, informs VAT registered taxpayers that this Monday, January 16, 2023, is the deadline to file the F211 form called: “Update of Address to Receive Notifications”, in order to comply with the formal obligation established in Art. 90, paragraph 2, of the Tax Code.
The Update of Address to Receive Notifications, by means of Form F211 is only available in the DGII Online Services Portal, via electronic means to file such tax obligation.
Regarding the obligation to Update Address to Receive Notifications, it is important to note that, by means of a circular issued by the General Directorate of Internal Taxes number 001/2012, on the: Obligation to Update Address to Receive Notifications, the DGII provided for the exclusion of compliance with said obligation, to taxpayers who have not made an effective change of the place to receive notifications or that having done so have informed the Tax Administration without making any subsequent modification.
However, by means of circular issued by the Directorate General number 001/2020, circular 001/2012 was SUPPRESSED with respect to the exclusion of compliance with the aforementioned obligation; therefore, as of 2020, compliance with said tax obligation will be resumed.
