SENIAT
It is an executive body of the National Tax Administration of Finance, which aims to
improve national collection. Among its main functions is the collection and control of all
taxes or taxes, as well as reducing tax evasion and reducing tax delinquency.
Functions and objectives
The SENIAT was created with a clear objective, to control and collect the
country's taxes. Before the mid-nineties, Venezuela
It survived mainly on the income that came from oil and although it was a very
strong source of income, many companies had to use a large part of this type of
resources to update and acquire new assets, all in order to improve and
optimize operations .
When the Venezuelan state stopped receiving these incomes, it had the need to collect
taxes, being able to cover all the expenses of the public administration. This alternative
was already used in many countries. This is how the country's tax opening was born,
which was not carried out so that the country could obtain greater income. It also
wanted to reorganize itself in the now defunct Ministry of Finance, which is now called
the Ministry of Finance.
