- Tax compliance is complex and businesses must choose between Voluntary Disclosure Agreement (VDA) and Managed Audit to address discrepancies.
- VDAs involve voluntarily disclosing non-compliance to tax authorities, often resulting in waived penalties and limited look-back periods.
- VDAs are suitable for businesses not yet audited but needing to correct past mistakes.
- Managed Audits are conducted under tax authority supervision, often when a business is already flagged for non-compliance.
- Managed Audits allow businesses to manage the audit process with expert guidance, potentially reducing penalties and interest.
- VDAs offer proactive compliance, reduced penalties, and control over the process.
- Managed Audits provide a structured audit process with potential benefits if the business cooperates fully.
