Nikos Karvelas denies tax evasion allegations amid dispute with Anna Vissi
On October 13, 2026, media reports emerged claiming that composer Nikos Karvelas has failed to file tax returns for the past four years. These allegations, linked to an ongoing audit by the Independent Authority for Public Revenue (AADE), surfaced during a period of public friction between the composer and singer Anna Vissi.
Karvelas issued a formal statement categorically denying any tax irregularities, asserting that all his personal and corporate income has been legally declared and all tax obligations fulfilled. He accused individuals close to Anna Vissi of leaking false information regarding his finances and property. The composer also addressed a recent incident at OAKA and previous disagreements with the singer and her production company, stating the dispute centers on the protection of his personality and professional work.
Karvelas has threatened legal action against those circulating what he describes as defamatory and false reports. As of now, the financial review by the authorities continues, while the personal and professional conflict between the two prominent artists remains a subject of public attention.
