What is tax representation?<\/strong><\/h3>

Tax representation means that administrative and tax-related procedures concerning VAT and imports are handled on behalf of your company. This is particularly relevant if you are not based in the Netherlands but do import or trade goods here.<\/p>

With international goods flows, you will have to deal with both Dutch and European regulations regarding VAT, imports and customs. Thanks to our knowledge of EU regulations and local legislation, we ensure that processes are organised correctly and efficiently.<\/p>

Of interest to international companies<\/strong><\/h3>

For international companies importing goods into the Netherlands, tax representation is a practical solution for complying with VAT obligations and import procedures. This prevents delays and reduces the administrative burden.<\/p>

By organising these processes effectively, you avoid delays and minimise administrative burdens. LIS Logistics complements this with customs facilities for import, storage and export.<\/p>

This service is particularly beneficial if you regularly import, temporarily store or transit goods within Europe. We support you both administratively and logistically, ensuring the entire process runs seamlessly.<\/p>

Article 23 authorisation and reverse charge of import VAT<\/strong><\/h3>

An important aspect of tax representation is the Article 23 authorisation. This means you do not have to pay VAT on imports immediately upon entry, but instead it is deferred to your VAT return.<\/p>

This prevents you from having to pre-finance VAT and provides greater financial flexibility.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Reduced administrative burden<\/strong><\/h3>

By combining tax representation with customs clearance and logistics support, we create a single, streamlined process. This means fewer separate steps, a lower risk of errors and a reduced administrative burden for your organisation.<\/p>

Thanks to software links with HM Revenue & Customs (Customs), import and export declarations, and our warehouse management system, processes are handled efficiently and delays are kept to a minimum. This ensures that procedures are processed efficiently and delays are kept to a minimum.<\/p>

For you, this means:<\/strong><\/p>
