- Underestimated VAT Risks: Family businesses often overlook VAT implications amid succession planning and restructuring, treating it as a routine compliance task rather than a critical reflection of their business model, leading to significant inefficiencies and risks.
- Common VAT Misconceptions: Many family businesses operate on habitual practices, such as informal asset transfers and misaligned invoicing, which can result in incorrect VAT treatment. These issues stem from assumptions rather than intentional negligence, exposing them to potential penalties.
- Strategic VAT Considerations: To mitigate risks, family businesses should proactively evaluate their VAT practices, ensuring proper treatment of intra-group transactions, asset transfers, and expenses, while fostering a governance structure that prioritizes VAT decision-making as part of their operational strategy.
