- DPT has an “Information Platform,” developed with the support of the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development, which explains tax obligations for 11 categories of taxpayers.
- The categories include legal entities, merchant individuals, ambulant traders, individuals, and farmers, each with information tailored to the applicable legislation.
- The platform covers the entire business life cycle, from initial registration to periodic reporting, payment of obligations, and rights vis-à-vis the tax administration.
- It is especially useful for a newly registered business that still doesn't know the sequence of steps it needs to follow.
In 2019, the General Directorate of Taxation updated the “Information Platform,” an online resource developed with the support of the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development, which provides an organized explanation of tax obligations for 11 different categories of taxpayers, from legal entities to farmers.
From our daily work, we often see newly registered businesses that don't know where to start, which step to take first, what needs to be reported, and when. An organized resource by taxpayer category greatly simplifies this initial phase.

What does the Information Platform contain?
The 11 categories of taxpayers
The information is divided by taxpayer category—legal entities, business individuals, ambulant traders, individuals, and farmers—11 categories in total. Each category has information tailored to its specific situation, in accordance with the tax legislation in force at all times.
The full business life cycle
The platform covers all steps, from initial business registration to periodic reporting of obligations, their payment, and the rights and obligations in relation to the tax administration. Its goal is to help even a taxpayer with no prior experience understand the order in which to proceed.
How do you find this information today?
The 2019 link may have changed.
The official DPT page has undergone several updates since 2019, so the specific link from that time to the “Information Platform” section may no longer lead to the same section. The most reliable way to find up-to-date information for your category is to search directly on the DPT homepage or to contact the Call Center.
Alternatively, contact us directly.
If you can't immediately find the relevant section on the DPT page, or if you need an explanation tailored to your specific case, you can contact us directly and we'll guide you step by step according to the category and phase your business is in.
Every time there is a tax or financial change that affects your business, we notify you directly by email with a practical explanation.

Wrong steps at the beginning cost more later.
A newly registered business that doesn't know the correct order of obligations—which filing comes first, which deadline is most urgent—risks making mistakes that later require extra time and resources to correct, compared to the small cost of getting proper guidance from the start.
How we handle this with our clients
When we start working with a newly registered business, we draw up a clear calendar of obligations by category and activity from the outset, rather than leaving it to rely solely on searching the DPT website.
Frequently asked questions
Is the Information Platform still active?
The very concept of an informational resource organized by taxpayer category remains part of DPT's services, but the exact structure of the site has changed since 2019. Please check the current section on the official website or contact us for direct guidance.
Which businesses does it benefit?
More for newly registered businesses or those changing their legal form or taxpayer category, who need to quickly understand the new obligations that apply to them.
Does this platform replace professional consultation?
Not entirely. The platform provides a general orientation by category, while each business's specific situation has details that require individual assessment, especially when it comes to decisions that directly affect costs or long-term obligations.
The original DPT announcement describes the update of this platform in 2019. Official DPT page. The concept of an organized source by taxpayer category remains valid today, despite possible changes to the site's structure.
