Superior Package: Where the range of queries might include issues requiring a greater investment in VAT specialist input we offer a fixed rate of Euro 210 (exclusive of VAT) and covers a maximum time input of 2 hours per query.
In both cases where it is identified that the query requires an input of greater than the standard input then a fee estimate will be provided, the fee estimate will incorporate the fixed rate agreed and additional time over and above the time input offered will be charged at an hourly rate of Euro 150 per additional hour.
Responses to queries will be made, unless circumstances prevent, within 48 hours.
The completed template then can be easily printed and filed for record purposes and also provides for risk assurance in that the answer provided is solely based on the information contained within the submitted query template form.
In order to use this service we provide you with a template query form which should be completed per query and allows for additional information, for instance example invoice, to be sent with the form by email.
