Audit Support

Comprehensive support for a smooth and successful VAT audit process

A VAT audit involves a detailed examination by tax authorities to assess your business’s compliance with VAT laws. These audits are commonly triggered by :

    • Discrepancies in VAT reclaimable positions
    • Errors or inaccuracies in VAT return
    • Tax authority scrutiny of external sales data
    • Corrections to previous VAT returns

At GVC, we help businesses minimize the likelihood of VAT audits through precise preparation of VAT returns. Should an audit occur, we provide expert guidance to navigate the process efficiently, minimizing disruption to your business.

Compliance Delays

Allocating staff and time to audit processes diverts attention from your business’s day-to-day operations, which can slow down productivity and reduce overall efficiency.

Retrieving and organizing historical data can be a cumbersome, error-prone process, particularly when tax authorities request files spanning multiple years.

Mistakes uncovered during an audit, such as underreporting VAT obligations, can result in substantial fines or penalties that significantly impact your financial standing.

The duration of a VAT audit can vary from a few weeks to several months, or in complex cases, even years. Delays often depend on the complexity of the issues, completeness of the business’s documentation and the responsiveness of tax authorities.
