Economic and Financial Affairs Council (ECOFIN) VAT in the Digital Age (ViDA) discussions
The VAT in the Digital Age (ViDA) proposal is still stimulating discussion across the continent with its significant e-invoicing and e-reporting plans, which will dictate the trajectory of the same over the next few years.
