February 26, 2008. The Tax Agency is analysing information on Spanish citizens included in Liechtenstein's lists of bank accounts and deposits allegedly used for tax evasion and fraud. Once the information has been analyzed, the corresponding inspection actions will be opened, if appropriate, or the files will be sent to the judicial bodies in the event of possible commission of tax crimes.

The tax administrations of Spain, Australia, Canada, France, Italy, New Zealand, Sweden, the United Kingdom and the United States, among others, are working in a coordinated manner after bank accounts and deposits were discovered in Liechtenstein with the purpose of evading the payment of taxes .

Research like this confirms the conclusions of the OECD Tax Administration Forum to establish standards of transparency and effective exchange of information regarding operations carried out with tax havens.
