While meeting in Trenčín, western Slovakia, the heads of the customs and tax authorities of the Visegrad Four countries on Thursday signed a declaration on the introduction of joint risks in the controls of imports of textiles and footwear from Asian countries. The two-day session on Thursday and Friday is also being attended by the heads of tax authorities from Austria and Slovenia. They have joined their peers from Slovakia, the Czech Republic, Poland and Hungary for a get together of 'V6' countries.
The main topic addressed by the representatives is the fight against tax evasion, which could be made more effective if V4 countries along with Austria and Slovenia used unified approaches and methods.
