The ICT systems the Dutch tax authorities are using for value-added tax (VAT) are severely outdated and need to be modernized to ensure the continuity of VAT processes in the long term. However, the planned modernization is at risk of failure, as concluded by the Advisory Board on ICT Assessment regarding the VAT Modernization Program.
This also means that new legislation and regulations may be limited for a longer period of time. State Secretary Van Rij outlines this conclusion, along with advice on how to prevent this failure, in a letter to the House of Representatives. He also explains the actions that are being taken.
