We support entrepreneurs in the correct and effective settlement of VAT, identifying potential savings, minimizing risks, and streamlining tax processes. Thanks to the practical knowledge and experience of KPMG experts, companies gain certainty in their settlements, quick access to specialists, and real support in the day-to-day management of VAT.

Assistance in preventing VAT fraud and support in proceedings

The problem of abusive VAT practices affects the entire EU but has a particular impact on the Polish market. VAT fraud is often linked with organized crime, which means that detecting it may pose a great challenge to companies. Along with the introduction of new mechanisms and legal solutions aimed at eliminating VAT fraud, criminals are moving to other industries. At the same time, the tax administration's campaigns against VAT fraud involving, inter alia, long-term inspections, challenging the correctness of settlements or blocking bank accounts, often backfires on honest entrepreneurs.
