VAT Consulting

Comprehensive advice on how to improve your VAT position and on customs legislation now and going forward


Optimising a company's tax burden is crucial in terms of efficient cost management. The initial area of focus is VAT, where taxes are paid on the basis of turnover rather than profits.

The new VAT Law comes into force on 1 January 2010, so there is still time to adapt to the coming changes. Use our checklist to determine what you need to do. You can also register for our event and examine the new fundamental legal principles.




Maintaining an overview of tax legislation in different countries is difficult, especially when you are doing business internationally. The problems are often complex and the legal situation complicated. VAT risks of which a company is unaware can easily turn into a matter affecting its survival. For this reason, a company's success depends on having an integrated VAT strategy closely adapted to its needs. Further, companies making cross-border shipments may not ignore the customs and excise aspects of VAT because such are subject to far-reaching change due to the current wave of international regulations.


The change in VAT guidelines (EU VAT package) in the EU has meant that all Member States are now required to incorporate the changes into national law by 01/01/2010. Our specialists will be pleased to advise you on this issue.
