NEW GROUND WON’T BREAK ITSELF.
In recent years, there has been a domestic and global trend of governments shifting emphasis from direct to indirect taxation. Businesses now face complex VAT systems, case law, guidance and legislation. Companies need to comply with thorny VAT rules when entering new markets, stretching out globally or joining international supply chains.
