The same in Macedonia, tax data are not public for any citizen.

Same in Canada. And Italy, although apparently the Min. of Finance
released all of the tax records one year in a Rambo move towards
openness which cause a lot of furore, although I am not sure what
happened.

Hi Zahid,
In Bulgaria tax data of both citizens and officials (including
parliamentarians) are not public. Only data of income and assets of
high ranking officials are public, but tax data definitely not.
As far as I know, though I might be wrong, everywhere in Europe is
the same with the exception of Sweden and Norway (Denmark left that
small community on that matter few years ago). In Norway I heard there
is debate to stop this openness as well.
But let other countries speak about their situation themselves! I am
also curious to know whether there are new/other developments.
Best regards,
Alexander

Hi,
I wonder in how many countries tax data is regarded as public data?
In Pakistan, tax data is not regarded as public data. CPDI and CRIP
jointly carried out studied titled ‘Representation without Taxation’
which was launched yesterday and which has been largely carried out
by local and international newspapers. It was also topic of different
evening television talk shows here. Following is the link of the
