VAT Advisory
VAT is a complex area of tax which affects every individual and corporation on their domestic, community or international business. With VAT authorities becoming more aggressive and enhancing their investigation powers, mistakes can be costly.
Our tax advisors assist our clients on a wide range of domestic, community and international VAT issues. EU citizens but especially non-EU ones, even tax practitioners, find it extremely difficult to keep abreast of EU changes on VAT. We, at AGPLAW, can help our clients and associates with EU VAT challenges and obligations.
We further join forces with our clients on filing objections when VAT is challenged, or in cases of professional negligence by our clients' accountants, resulting to fines payable by our client.
Our practice includes:
- VAT Registration
- Cyprus VAT law and specialist opinions
- Obtaining advance rulings from the VAT authority
- VAT returns and VIES
- EU cross-border transactions
- Issues relating to non-VAT register-able business (such as financial services etc).
