\u2477<\/u><\/strong>Penalties<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n

In case it is found out that GEKAP is not declared on time or there is an omission of reported amount, the regulation imposes an administrative fine. On the other hand, if the company fails to pay GEKAP, it is subject to a penalty of 120% of the amount due in addition to the delay interest. These penalties will be doubled given incompliance is repeated within three years. Furthermore, the penalty amount will be even tripled in case there is any further failure in the same three-year interval after the second failure.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Financial policy in Turkey relevant to the environment protection has activated more than ever since Turkish government implemented a ban on the free distribution of plastic bags in last January. Therefore, as well as the other tax declaration, companies needs to proceed the appropriate declaration and payment on time for GEKAP in compliance to Turkish tax regulation.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

That is all for this week.<\/p>\n

Thank you very much for your time read until the end.<\/p>\n
