VAT recovery: what should we do in case of tax service rejection?

The Client applied to Interlegal upon VAT recovery. In the process of tax inspection, control body issued the Act on rejection of VAT recovery.

The reason for such rejection was breach of declaration procedure, i.e. submission of VAT return for the month following that one when the Client incurred expenses.

Interlegal corporate lawyers drafted an objection against the Act on rejection, having negated the arguments of tax service and having proved that the Client submitted VAT return in due time. Finally, the Client received the declared amount of tax credit in full.

Unfortunately, similar rejections of tax service occur quite often; however if you act rapidly and have an active legal position, you may adjust the case in your favour.

Interlegal junior lawyer Viktoria Yankovskaya and associate attorney Marta Sverdlykivska, managed by partner Irina Voyevodina, led the project.
