abstract = "Službena lica u državnim organima i organizacijama moraju zakonito i efikasno da obavljaju radnje u okviru svojih službenih i javnih ovlašćenja. Postupanje protivno pravilima službe, kršenje ili zloupotreba službenih ovlašćenja nanose štetu drugim licima i krše njihova ustavom zajemčena prava. Autor se u ovom radu bavi obavezom čuvanja službene tajne u poreskom postupku, analizirajući je kroz načelo sadržano u poreskom zakonodavstvu Republike Srbije, kao i kroz krivično delo odavanja službene tajne iz čl. 369 Krivičnog zakonika. Autor ukazuje da su službena lica, i kada im prestane to svojstvo, kao i druga lica u poreskom, poresko-prekršajnom i sudskom postupku u obavezi da čuvaju podatke i dokumenta koji su okarakterisani kao službena tajna. U radu se ukazuje na posledice (sankcije) povrede službene tajne i ciljeve zaštite u poreskom pravu. Analizom su obuhvaćeni i različiti slučajevi u srpskom poreskom zakonodavstvu kada, saopštavanjem nekog podatka ili omogućavanjem uvida u određena dokumenta poreskog obveznika, službena tajna nije povređena., Officials in state agencies and organizations must perform its activities, legally and effectively, within their official and public authorities. Acting contrary to the rules of service, violation or abuse of official authorities harm other persons and violate their rights guaranteed by the Constitution. In this paper the author deals with the obligation to keep the official secret in the tax procedure. Official secret in the tax law is not only a document, information or data about the taxpayer, but also information on technological inventions, patents and technological procedures and methods applied by the taxpayer, reached by the officials. The author analyzes the relevant principle in the tax legislation of the Republic of Serbia, as well as the Art. 369 of the Criminal Law related to the criminal offence of disclosure of official secret. She points out that the officials, as well as other persons in the tax, tax-infringement or judicial proceedings must keep data, information, records and documents which have been characterized as an official secret. By confidiality of these information and documents not only the personal and professional integrity of the taxpayer are protected, but also the public interest of the Republic of Serbia. The author notes that certain people, because of their professional relationship with the taxpayer (e.g. a lawyer, a tax consultant, an auditor, an insurance agent, a psychologist, a doctor, a priest), may refrain from providing information which are relevant for tax assessment. However, this is a professional, not the official secret. The sanctions for the criminal offence of disclosing official secret are examined in the paper, too. In addition to the criminal sanction (imprisonment of six months to five years), the taxpayer is also entitled to the legal protection and may claim the compensation of damage (pecuniary and non-pecuniary). The analysis also includes the different cases in the Serbian tax legislation when the official secrecy is not violated by announcing information or allowing access to certain documents of the taxpayer. For example, data on the tax identification number of the taxpayer is not confidential; information which cannot be explicitly linked to a particular taxpayer; if the taxpayer agrees in written that some information about him can be disclosed or published; the Internal Service has an obligation to announce at its website the list of the largest tax debtors in the country, on a quarterly basis, etc.",
