VAT audits by the FTA

VAT controls by the FTA


Have you been notified of a VAT audit by the Federal Tax Administration (FTA) or have you been subject to any offsetting as a result of an audit that has already been carried out?

In these cases, we are happy to support you with the following services:


  • Preparation for an audit by the Federal Tax Administration (FTA) (preparation of relevant documents, identification of potential risks, preparation/procurement of supporting documents, etc.)
  • Accompaniment/cooperation during the inspection
  • Assessment of offsetting transactions
  • Representation in tax (criminal) proceedings against the tax administration and before courts (in cooperation with experienced tax lawyers)

A VAT audit by the Federal Tax Administration (SFTA) can result in significant additional tax charges. In many cases, taxpayers cannot independently assess whether the offsets made by the tax administration are justified. In precisely these cases, we assist taxpayers and attempt to prevent unjustified offsets – if necessary, even before the Federal Supreme Court (Clavatax Steuer-Advokatur AG).
