From January 2013 UK business can reclaim VAT incurred in the Republic of Serbia, but can you speak Serbian?
HMRC has issued VAT Information Sheet 06/14 to explain how, since 1 January 2013, a UK business has been able to reclaim VAT incurred in the Republic of Serbia.
The deadline for the submission of claims relating to 2013 is 30 June 2014. There is a slight complication though in that the claim form must be completed in the Serbian language. An English translation of the form can be found at http://www.hmrc.gov.uk/news/serb-lang-uk-trans.pdf, but that can only help so far with the task.
Once completed the Serbian language claim form with original copies of all relevant invoices should be mailed to:
Tax Administration Headquarters
Audit Sector
3-5 Save Maskovica Street
11000 Belgrade
Serbia
