11/03/25 (Agence Europe) – After two years of discussions, European finance ministers, meeting in Council on Tuesday 11 March, adopted the legislative package on value added tax (VAT) in the digital age (ViDA), which was the subject of a political agreement last November (see EUROPE 13518/13). “This package will give the EU a competitiveness boost, help combat VAT fraud and cut the administrative burden for business”, commented Polish Minister Andrzej Domanski. The package comprises a directive, a regulation and an implementing regulation. The new rules will make VAT declaration obligations entirely digital by 2030 for businesses that sell goods and services to companies located in another EU Member State.
