• International supplies of goods and services
• Sector specific related VAT issues

Why do you need a VAT expert?

With the UK standard rate of VAT increased to 20% it is essential to be able to obtain clear, concise VAT advice. This is particularly relevant due to the harsher penalty regime adopted by HMRC where they will consider having taken VAT advice on complicated matters as a sign of taking ‘reasonable care’.

VAT has been implemented in over 130 countries. In the increasing global market place it is important to be aware of the different rules to VAT in other countries. Having contacts with VAT experts in many jurisdictions outside the UK, we can assist in obtaining understandable overseas VAT advice when required.

How can Ulus and Co. help?

We consider it essential to understand the nature of your or your clients’ business, not-for-profit organisations or charities, and the desired objectives, to be able to provide structured practical VAT advice. We will always be happy to work with you or your clients’ other advisors to assist in providing a combined approach, recognising VAT is one element of the overall tax issues you and your clients face.

Initial consultations are always free and of no obligation, and in many cases fixed fees may be agreed in advance depending on the nature of the work, which can significantly help with budgeting.
