Global Indirect Tax Management shows the area where risk based controls are to be expected and in addition shares templates and methods for self assessments purposes.
In this edition we like to highlight a company's "VAT Control Framework"
A Tax Control Framework (TCF) is an internal control instrument specifically aimed at the tax function within a company and an integral component of a company’s business control framework, which is different for every organization. It is a system (process) to identify, mitigate, control and report tax risks.
The ultimate objective of a TCF is to be in compliance with tax laws and reporting requirements and manage the risks that exceed the companies' risk appetite.
A TCF should prevent tax errors, identify opportunities in a timely manner and perform correct filings at the right moment.
A company's VAT control framework system is adequate if it provides insight into where material VAT risks may arise in the company (awareness), while the degree of risk tolerance is established internally and where appropriate control measures are taken with respect to these risks.
Below video will provide further details about an effective setup of such a controls framework and the importance of aligned to the company's business framework. The pictorial overview shown first, provide the key definitions.
We hope you appreciate our initiative.
GITM is continuously updated via input of the reader's community all over the world. Your feedback, is therefore welcomed.
Kind regards,
