On March 11, 2025, the Council of the European Union formally adopted the VAT in the Digital Age (ViDA) proposal, setting the stage for significant transformations in the European Union’s VAT system over the coming years. This milestone was reached after nearly three years of negotiations following the initial proposal on December 8, 2022. ViDA represents a major step toward modernizing VAT compliance, particularly for businesses engaged in cross-border transactions within the EU.
