Welcome to the VAT Practitioners Group web site

The VPG membership is comprised of specialists from the VAT profession, leading law firms, industry, major retailers and commerce. Through its diverse technical sub-committees the VPG can exercise considerable influence upon H M Revenue & Customs, the Judiciary and Government itself.

Members receive regular bulletins, which provide comprehensive information relating to changes in VAT law and interpretation. Additionally, members are able to attend the annual VPG Conference that is widely acknowledged to be the premier indirect taxation conference of the year.

To become a member of the VPG you must be a full time VAT specialist and be prepared to devote one evening per month to attend your Chapter meeting. If you would like to join the VPG please read the constitution and complete the application form.

Remember:

  • Make your views known!
