- Tourism is vital to the EU economy, with tour operators playing a key role across multiple Member States.
- The Tour Operators’ Margin Scheme (TOMS) was introduced to simplify VAT accounting for travel packages by treating all components as a single supply taxed in the operator’s home country.
- VAT is charged only on the operator’s margin, not total turnover, and margins related to non-EU services may be exempt.
- Despite its aim to simplify, TOMS remains complex and controversial, with ongoing challenges and inconsistencies in its application across Member States.
