Indirect taxes and global trade
In recent years, issues related to managing indirect taxes — such as VAT, GST, customs and excise duties — have risen on the corporate agenda.
What EY can do for you
Knowing the indirect tax rules for your business operations and applying them correctly are key to avoid assessments, penalties and goods blocked on airports, harbors, roads, etc. Taxpayers and tax administrators do not always agree about the rules. Complex local legislation, evolving business models and widely different compliance obligations in different jurisdictions add to the risk of disagreements.
We can advise you on the steps to take to strategically meet your tax obligations and resolve tax controversy. We foster an open dialogue with customs authorities, government officials, business partners and other stakeholders about customs and international trade issues, the impact of policy decisions and the importance of free trade.
By matching our services to the local, regional and global footprint of our clients, we help you to shift the focus from tactical and transactional activities to trade activities that are more strategic and focused on value creation.

- The paper also discusses VAT in Switzerland, where further increases are to be expected for various reasons.
