Panoramic: Automotive and Mobility 2025
Our market-leading VAT team recognizes the power of VAT. A tax that needs a different perspective. A tax that should be more consistent throughout the EU than it currently is. A tax in many countries outside the EU, each with its own unique rules. A tax that needs special consideration for those in VAT-exempt industries. And a tax that can be a headache for in-house tax directors.
We provide solutions for your VAT and indirect tax needs. We help you plan your transactions, enact your day-to-day business, deal with niggling disputes with tax authorities, or confidently take on the bigger litigation if needed. We offer workable solutions. Our extensive experience means we are ready for whatever you can throw at us.
