Tax Enforcement

Tax enforcement refers to the actions taken by government authorities to ensure compliance with tax laws and to collect taxes owed. It involves various activities, including audits, investigations, and issuing penalties for non-compliance. Tax agencies, like the IRS in the United States, have the authority to assess taxes, examine financial records, and enforce collection through legal means, such as liens or seizures. The goal of tax enforcement is to maintain fairness in the tax system, ensuring that individuals and businesses pay the taxes they owe according to the law.
