VAT Training

VAT rules are constantly changing, and not complying to the rules may be an expensive mistake. That is why it is important to understand the rules and to know how these rules apply to your business. Dutch VAT Rep offers practical, hands-on VAT training courses designed for employees of foreign business who deal with cross-border trade, specifically in the Netherlands.

Our VAT training is built on more than 30 years of experience helping international companies with VAT compliance and VAT representation in the Netherlands. Every VAT course we deliver is tailored to your needs and is grounded in real cases, current legislations, and daily situations or problems that you actually ran into.

We offer a VAT compliance course, which is an in-depth training aimed at clients who want to build a solid, up-to-date understanding of Dutch and/or EU VAT compliance. The course can both be provided online or on a physical location, depending on what your preferences are.

The training will cover the most important topics for companies trading across borders, including:

• Dutch VAT registration and VAT representation
• Intra-Community trade
• Import VAT and the VAT deferment scheme (Article 23 license)
• The current VAT rules and legislative changes
• Common compliance pitfalls and how to avoid them

The compliance course offers a great opportunity to broaden your VAT knowledge and it will help you with your day-to-day tasks. Contact us if you are interested in following the course or would like to receive more information.

Every business is different, and sometimes a general VAT course isn’t specific enough for your situation. Our in-house VAT training is a VAT course entirely tailored to your needs. We will discuss the topics that you are most interested in and that matter to your organisation most.

We will discuss in advance what your business activities, transactions flows, and questions are. Based on this information, we design an in-house VAT training that could cover, for example:

• Your specific supply chains and how VAT applies to each step
• Invoicing and administrative requirements
• Sector-specific VAT rules that are relevant to your industry
• Practical do’s and don’ts based on your transactions

We will prepare a reader as supporting literature, so you will have a reference to fall back on after the training. In-house training can be delivered at one of your offices or online, for one department or for your whole finance team: whatever works best for your business.
