for businesses to keep ahead of developments in VAT, more so to
asertain the way in which they are to be operated. As more and more
businesses are becoming involved in international trade, it is also

and the VAT implications of trading with the rest of the world.

how to arrange their affairs in order to minimise VAT liabilities
and streamline VAT administration.
