- The proposal seeks to amend Regulation (EU) No 904/2010 to grant the European Public Prosecutor’s Office (EPPO) and the European Anti-Fraud Office (OLAF) access to EU-level VAT information.
- The main goal is to combat fraud, corruption, and other illegal activities affecting the EU’s financial interests.
- Currently, EPPO and OLAF must request VAT information from individual member states, which is slow and inefficient, especially for cross-border fraud cases.
- The amendment aims to streamline and improve the effectiveness of investigations into VAT fraud across the EU.
