The book explains the procedures in penal investigations of tax fraud in Belgium. This investigation is the mostly set up after a report from the competent tax administration or police. The essence of the penal investigation must necessarily concentrate on those issues from which it can be discerned that the person or company in question is guilty of tax fraud. This must be expressed by the responsible tax officials, the suspects, the accomplices and the witnesses, and also from the various obtained information and the analysis of the data gathered. Furthermore, the diversity of taxes (income tax, VAT, registration and inheritance taxes, customs and excise taxes) must be also taken into account. In spite of the fact that tax investigations differs from case to case, it is possible to specify a series of procedures which can be followed in each case of tax fraud investigation. The content of this book is focused on the manner in which a penal tax dossier may be composed and what it must contain. Daily cases of tax fraud are being treated, rather than the more advanced cases of tax fraud.

This collective book offers a panorama of the history of tax evasion, tax avoidance and tax havens from the nineteenth century to the present day, based on the latest research in contemporary history. It aims to show that this phenomenon is at the heart of global capitalism, partly as a response of the ruling classes to the rise of progressive taxation, but for other reasons too: notably the development of a powerful tax evasion and avoidance industry in different countries. The book argues that tax competition between states has stimulated the development of tax havens. It discusses the notion of the ‘tax haven’ and proposes a more rigorous concept - that of the ‘tax predator’. Finally, the book sheds light on the socio-political conflicts that have developed around tax evasion and the way in which states have fought against or tolerated the phenomenon.
