Interdisciplinary teams beyond tax issues
Our experts advise you on topics in the areas of VAT and Customs & Trade. In order to be able to provide you with comprehensive support beyond purely tax-related issues, our specialists regularly work together with experienced colleagues from the Audit and Advisory divisions - both nationally in Germany and internationally.
Questions on turnover tax and customs law increasingly important
Due to the internationalisation of entrepreneurial activities and the steady increase in cross-border trade in goods and services, advice on complex VAT and customs issues is becoming increasingly important. The increasingly comprehensive legal regulations also require a heightened awareness of the associated tax requirements.
In particular, the amendments to Directive 2006/112/EC (formerly the 6th EU Directive), their sometimes very different implementation in the individual EU countries, as well as the large number of pending cases before the European Court of Justice (ECJ) and the Federal Fiscal Court (BFH) require comprehensive specialised knowledge. This is the only way we can react quickly to any changes and implement them promptly in your company.
