European Automotive Service and Repair Association (EASRA) experts welcome the proposal on VAT in the Digital Age and congratulate the European Commission to update VAT reporting obligations. It does be an important step to adequately combating “carousel fraud” of imported vehicles. Some improvements are still to be brought so that the administrative burden linked with VAT invoice be automatically put in place. In just a few clicks, with this VAT modernisation, citizens could obtain their imported car registration, because the e-invoicing would implement VAT payment. The attached document outlines EASRA experts’ feedback. Many thanks for your attention.
