EU-VAT
Areas of Practice
EU-VAT
The EU-VAT (European Union value added tax) is a tax on goods and services within the European Union (EU). The EU’s institutions do not collect the EU-VAT, but EU member states are each required to adopt a value-added tax that complies with the EU-VAT code.
Different rates of VAT apply in different EU member states, ranging from 17% in Luxembourg to 27% in Hungary. The total VAT collected by member states is used as part of the calculation to determine what each state contributes to the “EU’s budget”.

EU-VAT & Reverse Charge
The Reverse Charge System is a vital part of the EU-VAT system, and means that in certain situations the liability of VAT payments is transferred from the supplier or person offering services to the taxpayer receiving the sale or service, i.e. VAT is declared by the customer rather than the supplier.
However, it is not as easy at it seems and there are some rules a taxpayer need to comply with.
