MIRA discloses 135 firms for not filing returns

The Maldives Inland Revenue Authority (MIRA) has published the names of 135 businesses that failed to submit tax returns.

This is in line with MIRA’s policy of disclosing the names of businesses that do not comply with filing requirements.

Earlier this year, MIRA released the names of 152 businesses that had not filed Goods and Services Tax (GST) and Green Tax returns until May. The figure has since fallen, with 17 businesses submitting their statements.
