Turkish Citizen Accused of €55,000 Tax Evade Damaging Montenegro Budget

Montenegrin police have filed a criminal complaint against a Turkish national, identified as S.D., for alleged tax evasion and financial misconduct that caused an estimated loss of €54,764 to the state budget. The investigation alleges that, acting as director and founder of the company S&D C d.o.o. Budva, S.D. failed to submit value‑added tax returns and withdrew cash from the company's bank accounts without proper documentation, thereby avoiding tax obligations. The case is being pursued under the national “Evazija” project, which targets economic crimes that threaten the country’s fiscal order.

Authorities emphasize that the operation aims to protect public finances and enforce legal accountability within the private sector.
