The Directorate of National Taxes and Customs (Dian) wants to lead the leap towards a universal declaration of income and for this it contemplates the implementation of a single platform that serves as a tool to unify taxpayer procedures under a single system.
In an interview with Portfolio, the director of the Dian, Luis Carlos Reyes, stated that “Today we have the ‘Muisca’ system for income tax, for example, but contributions to social security must be made through a form, and on the other hand when payments are received from some type of monetary transfer from the DPS it is another system”.
(Dian: his projections of tax collection and electronic invoicing).
He added that what is sought in the National Development Plan is to reach “a universal declaration of income, which also helps us to make all those payments through the same platform”.
“What we are looking for is that this technological platform, which the Dian already needs, is used to provide support to other State entities that receive payments from citizens or that make transfers to them, so that everything is much more harmonious and is a window digital”, Reyes said.
(In what is invested what is collected in the income statement?).
According to the official, the Dian has expressed its willingness to articulate these efforts. “There are things in which we are able to do better than developed countries, we are in a process of digital modernization and we will take advantage to leave everything impeccable”.
