The New EU VAT Legislation

The New EU VAT Legislation - Theory and Business Reality - A practical perspective on the new European VAT Rules addressing complex implementation issues


This presentation took place on February 25, 2010 at 10:30 AM Greenwich Mean Time.

This live and interactive 60 minute webcast focused on the practical implementation issues arising for UK and EU businesses selling and receiving services across borders. We looked at how companies are coping with the new rules and what challenges they are presented with. We demonstrated how these challenges can be addressed and how other businesses have dealt with certain implementation issues. Participants were given the opportunity to ask questions and obtain a practical insight into the new rules in order to understand how to minimise risk and maximise VAT compliance.


Discussion points:

  • What has changed at EU Level?
  • Where are the Member States in implementing the changes?
  • What has changed in the UK?
  • Practical implementation issues
  • Case study
  • Managing Risk
  • Q&A
