Last Tuesday (30/06), the deadline for companies obliged to Sped Contábil (companies subject to differentiated economic-tax monitoring in 2008 and opting for the taxation of Income Tax based on Real Profit) ended submitting their Bookkeeping Digital Accounting System (ECD) with information for the calendar year 2008.

The SPED reception and processing environment received 43.705 files from 7154 contributors. This number represents about 90% of the companies obliged to Sped Contábil.

The IRS informs that the space available for receiving the files has been expanded to facilitate the receipt of data. The use of the system remained within the expected limit and in the last day alone, 14.657 files were received.

The Sped Supervisor-General, Carlos Sussumu Oda, recalls that by September 30, around 28.000 Sped Fiscal taxpayers will have to forward the files of the Digital Tax Bookkeeping.
