- and in other cases stipulated by the Code.
At the same time, it should be indicated that the taxpayer’s obligation to submit the tax declaration is considered fulfilled and the tax declaration can be not submitted if such taxpayer received income only:
- from tax agents that are not included in the total monthly (annual) taxable income;
- exclusively from tax agents, regardless of the type and amount of accrued (paid, provided) income, excepting expressly provided for in Section IV of the TCU;
- from the sale (exchange) of property, donations, income from which according to Section IV of the TCU is not taxed, taxed at a zero rate and / or from which a tax was paid according to Section IV of the TCU when notarizing contracts;
