Representing the interests of businesses working within the field of VAT at the multi-national level

The International VAT Association (IVA), formed in 1994, is represented by membership in almost all 27 EU Member States, and in total 40 countries. Globally, the Association covers all major international markets.

The Association is unique in that it provides to its members a forum for exchanges, through its website, LinkedIn Group and via regular conferences held in different locations around the world.

For any business working within the field of VAT and turnover taxes, this is the only multi-national Association which exists to represent their business interests.
