A tax authority appoints ex officio a tax representative to the tax payer whose place of residence, or headquarters are unknown, or to the unknown owner of the property which is subject to the corresponding taxation procedure. In the case of the tax payers who are not capable of working and do not have a legal representative, the tax authority makes a claim to the competent municipality court to appoint a tax representative ex officio. The amount of the award to the tax representative ex officio for the performed activities at tax authorities is determined in points according to the Tariffs of the Rulebook on the Amount of Award and Compensation of Expenses to the Representatives appointed ex officio, approved by the Minister of Finances.
