Represented a wholesaler in the tax dispute regarding VAT triangulation and “safety net” provision

Our tax litigation team has successfully represented a wholesaler in the tax dispute against Lithuanian tax authorities. The tax authorities claimed that our client participated in the chain transactions and unlawfully took advantages of VAT Triangulation scheme. Our tax experts convinced Lithuanian tax authorities that their interpretations of VAT provisions are contrary to the VAT Directive, therefore tax authorities came up with a decision that our client applied the VAT Triangulation simplification and “safety net” rule correctly.
