Brief introduction of the seminar 

Ernst & Young is firmly committed to bringing relevant and timely issues and ideas to our clients. We have launched a series of seminars as a platform to update our clients with the latest indirect tax regulatory changes, as well as to encourage senior business executives and tax professionals to network with their peers for the sharing of knowledge and experiences.

At present, China has the highest rate of VAT at 17% within the Asia Pacific region and this tax is a major source of revenue for the Chinese government. VAT, together with other indirect taxes (Business Tax, Consumption Tax and Customs Duty), constituted almost 60% of the tax collected in 2007.

Ernst & Young has a dedicated team of experienced indirect tax professionals committed to helping our clients to understand and actively manage the interplay between VAT, customs and other indirect taxes.

You are cordially invited to attend our event “Navigating indirect tax changes during difficult economic times”. Indirect taxes have become more important than ever as these taxes are payable irrespective of whether a company is profitable and can put a strain on cashflow.

Who should attend? 

• Tax Directors 
• Financial Controllers 
• Supply Chain & Logistics Directors 
• Customs & Trade Directors 
• Purchasing Directors 
• Legal professionals 
• Indirect tax professionals

This event is by invitation only and there are limited seats – please reserve a place immediately to avoid disappointment. Please complete the attached registration form and send it back to Ernst & Young’s local representatives listed below before deadline.
