Every taxpayer can disclose net assets through a price disclosure notification letter. The letter was given to the director-general of taxes from January 1, 2022, to June 30, 2022.
When disclosing net assets, taxpayers must attach several documents, such as proof of final income tax payments, a detailed list of assets along information on reported property ownership.
