VAT fraudsters are costing billions of euros to Europeans - @EUProsecutor is fighting this theft every day!
But many countries try to ignore this problem and choose the side of tax dodgers. We should up the pressure!

Debating VAT fraud in the EU, MEP Schuster points out the need for a definitive 🇪🇺 VAT system.
That would unify the rules, make the system more fraud-resilient and easier to use for businesses, while bringing in much needed revenues for EU countries.
