Empowering Businesses Through Smarter Financial Solutions

VAT/GST reclaim is the process of recovering taxes paid on business-related expenses. Domestic VAT reclaim focuses on local expenses, while foreign VAT reclaim applies to cross-border expenses, requiring compliance with specific international regulations. Way2VAT's automated platform simplifies both processes across 40+ countries.

In-house VAT reclaim is complex, with country-specific regulations, language barriers, and high potential for manual errors. Way2VAT eliminates these challenges with automated compliance checks, AI-powered validation, and direct communication with tax authorities—ensuring maximum refunds while your team focuses on core business activities.

Hidden opportunities include Accounts Payable invoices, employee travel expenses, capital expenditures, and foreign VAT transactions. Way2VAT's AI platform identifies reclaimable expenses across all categories, capturing up to 30% more recovery than traditional methods.

Reclaiming VAT or GST improves cash flow by recovering funds spent on eligible expenses and reducing operational costs. Regular VAT refunds, especially for international operations, provide consistent financial benefits that support strategic planning and growth.

Strict deadlines for VAT/GST reclaim vary by country, typically ranging from 1 to 5 years. Missing deadlines forfeits refund opportunities. Way2VAT tracks and manages these deadlines automatically, ensuring timely claims and maximized cash flow.

APAI (Accounts Payable AI) is Way2VAT's real-time invoice compliance validation technology. It automatically checks every AP invoice against country-specific VAT regulations before payment—catching invalid VAT IDs, incorrect rates, and compliance errors that could trigger penalties, denied tax credits, or audit issues.

Automated VAT reclaim focuses on recovering taxes already paid on eligible expenses through AI-powered processing. VAT consultancy provides strategic advisory on how to structure transactions, manage compliance obligations, and optimize your VAT position going forward. Together, they offer complete indirect tax management—recovering past opportunities while preventing future issues.

It depends on your business complexity. Companies with straightforward expense reclaim may only need automation. However, businesses with cross-border operations, complex supply chains, or significant regulatory exposure benefit from combining automated processing with expert advisory to maximize recovery, ensure compliance, and minimize risk.

Way2VAT combines three layers of protection: (1) AI-powered technology that validates invoices against country-specific regulations in real-time, (2) automated tracking of jurisdiction-specific deadlines and requirements, and (3) RBCVAT's expert oversight for complex regulatory interpretation and strategic compliance planning.

We're the only provider offering complete indirect tax management under one roof: patented AI automation for VAT recovery, real-time APAI compliance validation, and expert VAT consultancy through RBCVAT. This integration eliminates the need for multiple vendors while ensuring maximum recovery, zero compliance gaps, and strategic guidance.

Implementation timelines vary based on your needs. Automated VAT reclaim can typically be set up within weeks with ERP integration. APAI invoice validation deployment depends on your AP system architecture. RBCVAT consultancy services can begin immediately with an initial assessment.
