Bulgarian Revenue Agents 'Eye Properties from Above'

A government helicopter was used to make a full videotape of properties in the southern suburbs of the capital Sofia under the request of the Bulgarian National Revenue Agency (NRA).
Luxury real estate in the affluent suburbs of Pancharevo, Dragalevtsi, Simeonovo, Boyana, Bistritsa and Knyazhevo has been filmed in order to probe the correspondence between the value of the properties and the income of their owners. Revenue agents have appraised them before the videotaping.

NRA suspect that some of the houses have never been declared and real estate and waste removal taxes have never been paid on them.
Owners, who fail to provide adequate proof of income, will be audited. The undeclared income will be taxed with interest, while cases of tax crimes will be immediately referred to the Prosecutor's Office, NRA say.
