A session on the latest news in relation to Customs Duty, Value Added Tax, Goods and Service Tax, Sales Tax, Business Tax and other indirect taxes.

- Find out how you can make indirect taxes work for you – in tough times when cash is king are you maximising indirect tax refunds and credits, at the same time as making the most of opportunities to lawfully defer indirect tax liabilities?
