Beginning January 2008, VAT Payers May Apply for Group Registration01/10/07 / cata_tax-news

The effectiveness of the Act on Stabilization of Public Budgets will provide VAT payers with the alternative of group VAT registration. The group registration makes it possible for affiliated parties (companies) to act as a single VAT payer with a single registration number for VAT purposes. This means that an entire corporate group will only file a single VAT tax return. Supplies delivered between individual group members are not deemed to constitute taxable supplies. The first groups of VAT payers shall be registered effective 1 January 2009, provided that they apply by 31 October 2008 at the latest.
