Specialist Partner Piia Ahonen's Interview in Juristikirje
27 October 2021
Specialist Partner Piia Ahonen from our Tax Team was interviewed for the latest issue of Alma Talent's Juristikirje. In the interview, Piia recommends lawyers to pay close attention to the secrets of VAT.
“I advise lawyers to familiarise themselves properly with VAT. When planning a new business, it is important to clarify if the VAT is charged in Finland or possibly in another country. Especially now during the pandemic, many companies have developed their business and shifted their operations towards e-commerce and cross-border trading. When the supply and, consequently, the invoicing chains change, the VAT treatment of sales may also change”, Piia reminds.

Piia Ahonen heads Hannes Snellman's VAT and other indirect tax matters and client accounts in the fields of tax consultancy and tax controversy. She has nearly 20 years of experience in Finnish and international indirect taxation.
