“…Based on an extensive analysis of the latest scientific publications, the decisive determinants that influence the occurrence and extent of tax evasion include the following factors: political tax evasion as an expression of disagreement with the politicians and governmental tax policy (Stieranka et al, 2016); economic factors -tax evasion is also influenced by the degree of the economic development of the state (Andrejovská et al, 2020;Dobrovič et al, 2018); legislative -quality and stable legislation is necessary to eliminate and prevent tax evasions (Durán-Cabré et al, 2018;Bucci, 2020); the level of tax burden and levies -inadequate or excessive tax burden increases the risk of speculations (Peňaflor-Guerra et al, 2020;Andrejovská et al, 2020;Majerová, 2016); taxation system (Bucci, 2020) as another key factor affecting tax evasion; social and ethical factors, where the reason of tax evasion can be low civic engagement in the area of tax payment and the level of corruption (Pezzolo, 2020;Gudinavičius, 2020;Stieranka et al, 2016;Andrejovská et al, 2020); control mechanism -tax control might be ineffective (Kot et al, 2019), if there is a large disproportion between the number of taxpayers and the number of controllers (Stieranka et al, 2016); globalization and technological and scientific development, where the rate of tax evasion increases with the technological development and modern IT technologies (Alm, 2021;Barbu, 2020); and an extremely important issue is double taxation, international tax evasion and tax havens (Rajnoha et al, 2014).…”
