VAT Law 

Why Do You Need An Expert In VAT Law ?


VAT law is a legal concept that affects all industries and numerous legal spheres. Almost all scenarios involving VAT law have their origin in civil law (e.g. the price issue upon concluding a contract), where the course is already set for the subsequent tax treatment of the intended business transactions. 

When it comes to raising an invoice for services rendered, the following questions come up:

  • Must the invoice be raised with or without VAT? 

  • Must the service be taxed abroad?

  • Are there any opportunities to create a more favourable tax scenario by changing the procedure?


Since the national VAT code is to be measured by European standards (in particular the 6th VAT Directive), a profound knowledge of European law and current legislation of the European Court of Justice and the Federal Fiscal Court is indispensable. 

Furthermore, it also takes profound knowledge of adjective and procedural law to achieve your objectives – fast and effectively – and by choosing the appropriate procedure.

This is why you need an expert in VAT law !
