Can shareholders report company misappropriation to the Inland Revenue Department?

If there is evidence that the shareholders or management of the company misappropriate the company's assets or commit any illegal acts, they can report it through various channels. If tax violations or tax evasion are involved, you can report to the tax bureau. The tax bureau is responsible for supervising and managing the implementation of tax laws and regulations, and they have the right to investigate and deal with tax violations.

In addition to the tax bureau, if misappropriation involves violation of company law, criminal law and other laws and regulations, it can also be reported to the public security organs, market supervision departments, industrial and commercial administrative departments and other relevant departments. In practice, it is suggested that legal professionals should be consulted first and appropriate reporting channels should be adopted according to specific conditions.

All kinds of reports must follow legal procedures to ensure that their reporting behavior is legal and compliant. At the same time, it usually protects the privacy and legitimate rights and interests of informants.
