31 May 2018 EU VAT refunds for non-EU businesses require action by June 30 Non-EU businesses that have incurred value added tax (VAT) in Europe during 2017 may be able to recover the VAT by applying to the relevant European Union (EU) countries for a refund — provided they comply with the rules. In general, claims by non-EU businesses must be submitted within six months after the end of the calendar year. The deadline for applications for 2017 for most EU countries is June 30, so taxpayers should be collecting the required information now to support a successful claim. Document ID: 2018-1131 |
