    EY’s Global VAT Compliance and Reporting service harnesses the power of advanced technology solutions and EY’s deep subject matter knowledge to transform multi-country VAT compliance. Our Global Tax Platform standardizes a company’s source data, allowing it to be used and reused to meet multiple tax obligations and mining it for new insights.

    Our approach helps companies meet their obligations accurately and efficiently, reducing investment needs for in-house resources and technology while keeping the business up to date with all relevant changes in VAT law and administrative practice. 

    Our approach gives management full visibility of the enterprise’s global VAT position – accessible at any time and from anywhere – allowing companies to plan more effectively and identify risk areas and opportunities that might otherwise be missed.
