Programme brief

Indirect tax is used by many countries worldwide to generate revenue and minimise tax evasion due to the relative ease of application and wide coverage. Value Added Tax (VAT) as a consumption tax contributed to more than 50% of the indirect tax revenue of the government in 2022 and is expected to grow in subsequent years. It is therefore important for companies to better manage their VAT exposures and navigate any hurdle the tax may present.
