- Revenue has launched a public consultation on modernizing the VAT system in Ireland.
- The consultation focuses on introducing real-time digital reporting for VAT, supported by electronic invoicing.
- The aim is to align compliance obligations with normal business processes and reduce compliance costs.
- Digital reporting would be more efficient for tax-compliant businesses and help combat fraud.
- Many developed economies have already undertaken similar reforms, providing international experience for Ireland to learn from.
- The consultation will run until January 12th and seeks the views of all VAT stakeholders.
