Biographical History

In 1848, tax authorities became executive financial authorities in the field of direct and indirect taxes, depository authorities and the lowest state treasuries. In the field of direct taxation, the authorities were subordinated to the political authorities of first instance, in matters of fees, excise duties and all treasury and financial activities, and in matters of state property and management, they were subordinated to the district financial directorates. In matters of court deposits and orphan funds, they were subordinated to district courts. From 1919, they were subject to new tax administrations - tax departments of district governor's offices. The district of the Jihlava tax office had the same area as the district court. In 1930, the tax office in Třešť was abolished and its scope was transferred to the tax office in Jihlava. From 1 January 1922, the agenda of collecting and enforcing direct taxes passed to the office. It was abolished during the reorganization of the financial administration in 1948.
