VAT Training
VAT is crucial to any business and it is important that staff dealing with the tax are aware of the full implications. A business cannot properly budget or agree deals unless they are aware of the VAT impact. Unfortunately, VAT is a complex tax, especially in certain areas which we recognise and focus on. An unexpected VAT issue can be a deal-breaker.
These training sessions aim to highlight areas of risk and provide a practical review of common problems.
Who is the course for?
Anybody who is responsible for the VAT activities of a business, completes VAT returns, or assists with transactions in any way and, has a basic understanding of VAT. We can provide training to one or two people or to entire departments.
