Press Release: VAT ‘one-stop shop’ conference, Berlin, 31 May

Preview of a conference hosted by the European Commission, together with the German Federal Chamber of Tax Consultants (the 'Bundessteuerberaterkammer'), on the simplification of VAT compliance obligations on 31 May in Berlin, Germany. The conference was to bring together VAT experts from the administrations of Member States and from the business sector. It was to focus on the Commission's VAT simplification proposal of October 2004 that included a 'one-stop-shop' system whereby a trader could fulfil all his VAT obligations for his EU-wide activities in the Member State in which he is established.
