In the near future, the Commission plans to present further important legislative proposals in the field of VAT.

They are to concern, in particular, harmonized electronic invoicing throughout the Union, taxation of a ”shared economy”, as well as changes crucial to the tourism and financial sectors. As B2RLaw, we want to substantially participate in the preparation of these changes, so that they respond to the needs and problems of Polish entrepreneurs as much as possible”, says Piotr Leonarski, attorney-at-law and tax advisor, Head of B2RLaw’s Tax Practice, who will be a representative of the VAT Expert Group.

Along with him, B2RLaw’s Tomasz Zaleski, an award-winning tax advisor, will also be among the EU advisors.
