Complex Ramifications Expected for EU VAT Processes in the wake of Brexit

Brexit news is inundating news feeds around the world but the primary concern of international businesses is what it means for the future. Modes of conducting business between the EU and the UK will shift, certainly, but to what degree? Years of experience in VAT solutions gives Taxback International the insight needed to anticipate the possible consequences of Brexit in regard to European VAT processes.

Regardless of the details of Brexit, it will have a ripple effect in VAT reclaim processing, upping the amount of time and work it will take to process VAT reclaims between the UK and EU. The EU VAT Refund Mechanism will no longer cover the UK, there will be no guarantee that thresholds for registration and rates of VAT in the UK and EU will be in alignment and simply scanning receipts will most likely no longer be an option. Individually, these changes would be a hassle to manage and taken together they will mean a mountain of additional work for companies. It may seem an unsurmountable task to make ready for the changes Brexit will bring but Taxback International Senior VAT Manager, Lisa Dowling says:

“Of course there will be many changes and new regulations will have to be taken into account but it’s nothing we can’t handle. This is what we do at Taxback International. We tailor solutions to meet the exact needs of our clients and manage the entire process from start to finish.”
