THIRTY-FIVE VAT violations were registered as 80 commercial establishments were inspected.
The campaign is being carried out by the Industry and Commerce Ministry and the National Bureau for Revenue (NBR).
Legal action would be taken against the violators, said the NBR, adding that tax evasion could incur a fine of up to BD10,000 and/or a jail term of five years.
VAT violators could be fined equal to three times the value of taxes evaded.
Consumers have been urged to report complaints of any VAT violations to the National Call Centre on 80008001, which is available 24/7.
