The EU suffers annual tax losses amounting to EUR 454 B, or 8.6% of tax revenues overall, from the shadow economy, according to research published by Austria’s Linz University.
According to the report, as cited by the Financial Times and Bulgarian daily Sega, Bulgaria has the largest losses in the EU, at 18.8%.
Austria is the EU country with the smallest percentage of tax losses, at 4.5%.
