MeridianVATreturn has been offering local VAT compliance outsourcing as part of its package of services for over 10 years. Meridian have built up one of the largest service centres of this type in the world based out of our Shared Service Centre (SSC) in Dublin, Ireland. This SSC currently covers submission in 35 jurisdictions, more than any other single centralised services provider in the industry – consisting of all the EU states and 10 key non-EU states. Meridian provides VAT compliance outsourcing to many large blue-chip multinationals that have entrusted us with managing multiple registrations covering a range of their international VAT returns.

The distinguishing features of MeridianVATreturn
Our VAT return outsourcing service is founded on four principles:

• Centralisation of VAT return preparation – we complete all VAT returns in our Dublin SSC. This allows as to gain efficiencies of scale, keep turnaround times low and apply quality controls much more easily then if we prepared returns locally in each country. However, we do not believe in a “one size fits all” approach to VAT procedure – we have invested heavily in obtaining international expertise and language skills for our SSC so that we can remain focused on the peculiarities of each country’s VAT system.

• Seamlessness with our clients’ systems – we take the whole burden of return preparation and submission out of our clients’ hands, while also ensuring that the accessing of information and reporting of submissions is seamlessly aligned with our clients systems.

• Compliments other Meridian outsourced services – our service is fully geared to interact with the other services that Meridian offers. We can interact with our scheduling and processing services for travel and entertainment costs as well as our suite of other business process outsourcing services.

• World class quality control – we have invested heavily in quality control systems achieving the highest standards and have a full ISO 9001:2000 accreditation.
