Voluntary Disclosure, Tax Regularization and Undisclosed Assets

Professional and discreet assistance with the review and regularization of assets, accounts, and income that may not have been fully reported. In an era of international financial information exchange (CRS and FATCA) and enhanced compliance, proactive tax regularization may assist in assessing reporting obligations, regularizing historical filings, and preparing supporting documentation required by tax authorities and financial institutions.

Voluntary Disclosure for Foreign Accounts, Crypto & Undisclosed Income

Proactive disclosure allows individuals to assess exposure, address reporting obligations and tax liabilities where applicable, and prepare structured accounting documentation ("source of funds") that may be required by banking and compliance authorities.

The Four-Step Process at Nimrodi & Co.

  1. 1

    Step 1: Initial Assessment & Feasibility (Strictly Confidential)

    Comprehensive preliminary review of asset sources, relevant tax years, and exposure, verifying qualification for proactive civil settlement.

  2. 2

    Step 2: Documentation, Data Reconstruction & Tax Calculation

    Reconstructing foreign bank statements, crypto transaction logs, and foreign tax credits; calculating capital gains, loss offsets, and foreign tax relief to prevent double taxation.

  3. 3

    Step 3: Reporting & Representation with the Israel Tax Authority

    Submitting amended tax returns and managing professional dialogue with the assessing officer to regularize filings and present a complete and accurate accounting of facts and figures.

  4. 4

    Step 4: Completion, Tax Settlement & Banking Documentation

    Finalizing the assessment agreement, settling agreed taxes, and obtaining professional documentation and certificates that may be required by banks and compliance officers, depending on the circumstances.

Professional Advantages

  • Professional Confidentiality: All communications and records are maintained under rigorous statutory accounting confidentiality and professional ethics.
  • Banking Compliance & AML Expertise: Structuring transparent documentation of the money trail to satisfy strict anti-money laundering (AML) and know-your-customer (KYC) requirements.
  • Cooperation with Leading Tax Attorneys: For complex matters requiring specialized legal defense or attorney-client evidentiary privilege, our firm works in full coordination with top-tier tax attorneys.

An accountant’s professional confidentiality is not attorney-client privilege. No outcome with the tax authority or acceptance of funds by a bank is guaranteed; each matter is assessed according to its circumstances and applicable law.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can undisclosed income be regularized when no official temporary voluntary disclosure program is open?

Yes. Even in the absence of a temporary amnesty program, taxpayers can proactively file amended tax returns and request an assessment agreement under the standard provisions of the Israeli Income Tax Ordinance. Proactive submission prior to an audit may assist in regularizing filings and reducing risks, depending on individual circumstances and statutory provisions.

Is paying the tax sufficient for the bank to accept the funds?

Not necessarily. Commercial banks are bound by strict AML/KYC regulations and demand clear, verifiable evidence of the source of funds and transaction history. Our firm assists in preparing comprehensive documentation and CPA verification letters to satisfy compliance officers.
