The Ministry of Treasury and Finance has initiated simultaneous audits for 552 taxpayers operating in the jewelry sector with a team of 3,000 people. Simultaneous audits were conducted at 707 addresses in 9 major cities. In Istanbul, one of these locations, some merchants who were informed about the audit in advance did not open their shutters all day. The sign hanging on the door saying "We are at a funeral" drew attention.

Some shopkeepers who were informed in advance about the inspections by the finance teams did not open their shops. A sign saying "We are at a funeral" was seen in a closed shop. During the inspections, the stocks of taxpayers were counted one by one, and it was checked whether they were buying and selling gold and precious stones without invoices.

It was also determined whether the invoices included the actual gram information of the products and whether the taxpayers conducted foreign currency transactions without an authorization certificate.

Taxpayers identified as risky in field inspections were also subjected to tax audits. However, some shopkeepers were informed in advance that a raid would be conducted. In order not to face a major sanction, some individuals who acted smartly did not open their shutters all day. The sign on the door of the shop saying "We are closed due to a funeral" drew attention. It was learned that the teams will continue their inspections and field audits in other sectors according to the plan and will not leave any area uninspected this year.
