Synopsis

In the contemporary world, artificial intelligence (AI) serves as a catalyst for one of the areas most significantly impacted by this transformation. As a pivotal component of technological advancement, AI influences the relationships between tax administrations, taxpayers, and other stakeholders. The integration of AI into tax administrations enhances efficiency in areas such as taxpayer services, risk and data analysis, and audits. Taxpayers, in turn, gain access to significant tax-related conveniences and advantages. Although the legal framework surrounding AI applications, including concepts such as electronic personhood, remains a subject of debate, there is a pressing need to reshape tax systems accordingly. In Türkiye, the tax administration has initiated numerous electronic applications to facilitate the adoption of AI. The use of AI contributes to curbing the informal economy, improving tax compliance, and ensuring that taxpayer services are more reliable, swift, and practical. The OECD and the EU are developing new policies concerning digital taxation. In the future, legal regulations will be essential to ensure the alignment of tax-related AI applications with tax systems.
