WHY IS THE SESSION OF RELEVANCE TO OUR MEMBERS?

Keeping abreast of local and EU VAT updates is essential for the correct application and implementation of the applicable VAT treatment in a timely and proper manner.  This is also useful for the proper fulfilment of the various compliance obligations, whilst avoiding penalties and interest which may be imposed in case of non-proper/timely compliance. It also serves for identifying any needs to update/change any VAT related policies and procedures.

This course is ideal for all finance personnel (including directors, accountants, lawyers, financial professionals, accounting students, financial staff) who deal with VAT related transactions/processes including VAT Returns, invoicing and accounting and who want to keep abreast of VAT updates and developments.
