In April, outstanding tax debt to the state rose by 700 million euros, reaching 4.332 billion euros. The amount is expected to increase to even greater levels when the next single property tax (ENFIA) installment is due.
Total revenue debt, taking into account past unpaid amounts, is at 90 billion euros. Experts estimate that it remains to be seen whether 10 billion euros from the total will finally make its way to state coffers.
