VAT in the EU

VAT in the EU offers a country by country guide on all 27 EU member states. Each country has its own system with rules and regulations varying widely between different countries and jurisdictions. Businesses, especially those operating internationally, need practical strategies to help confront the growing challenges of complying with and managing indirect taxes. Each chapter addresses the main considerations for the international tax professional impacting VAT in a given country. Written by Nancy Cruickshanks, a VAT specialist and partner at Shipley's AGN, in conjunction with contributors from other AGN firms, this comprehensive title enables practitioners to help their clients drive indirect tax costs out of their supply chain, as well as give better advice on more tax-efficient structures impacting offshoring and outsourcing. The text also covers such areas as: * Structured indirect tax planning * Supply-chain review and planning * Registration, fiscal representation and agency services * Optimisation of indirect tax accounting * Mergers and acquisitions
