Revenue question - B&B

[Jscully]

Hello
I am new to this website so any help would be appreciated. I advertise my property on booking website. Do revenue have access to booking websites information about individual B&Bs? They are based in Amsterdam and all statements come from Amsterdam. Payment goes to a Bank of Ireland account. Thank you in advance for any help.

Maybe not - but they could get access to see your BOI account if they wanted to.

They also recently got access to the credit card spending details so they can figure out if you are spending more than you are earning. And they have the trickly little weapon of penalties and interest that make it oh so not worthwhile not to declare. In addition they read on here and are alerted to more people earning money via Dutch websites. Probably related to camping or fishing as the Dutch like that.

If they don't, they will soon do.

Revenue have always trawled online sites like this and before internet it was the small ads in the papers. They definitely are very active looking at Facebook selling pages, I have personal experience of that (mind you they were wrong in their assumption but that's another story). Now how successful they are or how much resources they put into it I don't know but I would think any sort of online presence is risky if you are not declaring if that's what your issue is.
