Value Added Tax is one of the most important taxes and obligations for a company. Companies that are not exempt from VAT deal with this tax in a particular way. When they sell a product or provide a service, they charge a VAT amount to their customers. However, this amount, known as output VAT, is not handed over to the state immediately. Instead, your company will be able to deduct the VAT on your purchases or services purchased and deduct it from the amount you have to hand over to the State.<\/p>\n
In summary, the amount you will hand over to the State is the difference between the assessed VAT and the deductible VAT. And don\u2019t forget: the periodic VAT return can be monthly or quarterly. You should consult a professional in the area to help you in these procedures so important for your business.<\/p>\n

In addition to the Social Security contributions, a withholding of 11% is also due on the salaries of the employees, this rate called contributions is also an obligation of the company, which must withhold and subsequently hand over to Social Security, along with other amounts.<\/p>\n
