From 12 to 14 May 2026, a workshop entitled “Digitalisation and IT Systems in Tax Administration: The Use of Artificial Intelligence” was held in Ljubljana, Slovenia, organized by the Center of Excellence in Finance in the South East Europe (CEF). A representative of G Solutions also participated in the event.
The workshop aimed to explore the application of Artificial Intelligence (AI), data analytics, and the identification of tax compliance risks within the digital economy. Participants examined the practical use of modern AI tools in tax administration, particularly in risk assessment and data-driven decision-making processes.
The workshop covered various opportunities for integrating AI systems into tax authorities' operations, including the analysis of taxpayers' activities on digital platforms, tax compliance risk assessment, the implementation of automated control mechanisms, and enhancing the overall efficiency of tax administration.
During the discussions on international best practices, participants were introduced to both established AI-driven solutions and emerging experimental approaches. Particular emphasis was placed on the importance of enabling tax authorities to utilize publicly available information to conduct preliminary assessments of risks associated with the informal economy, while ensuring compliance with legal and ethical standards.
The knowledge and experience gained through the workshop will contribute not only to the participant’s professional development but also to the more effective, secure, and accountable implementation of AI technologies, the enhancement of risk assessment methodologies, and the strengthening of internal control and audit mechanisms.
