Summary/Abstract: Through this material, we draw your attention to Decision no. 29/A/2022 of the High Court of Cassation and Justice concerning the crime of tax evasion provided by Article 9 paragraph 1 letter b) of Law no. 241/2005. The decision is relevant for academics and practitioners, as it brings into discussion a number of important issues, namely: (I) the issue of “accounting documents or other legal documents”, which is relevant for the purpose of the offence of tax evasion provided for in Article 9 paragraph 1 letter b) of of Law no. 241/2005, is analysed; (II) it questions the need to take into account deductible expenses when calculating the damage, by reference not only to the accounting records but also to each payment document attesting a deductible expense; (III) it analyses the situation in which, although the income has not been recorded in the accounting accounts, it has been declared to the tax authorities; (IV) calls into question whether the offence of tax evasion can be committed in a continuous and continuing manner, all these aspects being critically analysed in this material.
