VAT OFTEN AMOUNTS TO LARGE AMOUNTS OF MONEY, AND RECLAIMING IT IS A HUGE COMPANY SAVING.

Many eligible companies do not reclaim this money as they are often deterred by the complexity of the qualifying rules, deadlines, language barriers and the time involved in making various applications to the different tax authorities in each country visited. AVR handles the entire process from beginning to end, with minimal client involvement.

  retrieve invoices that are valid for VAT reclaim.  They are highly qualified and specialised people who know how to manage this process smoothly and efficiently
