Overview

What if your company’s tax exposure could be addressed before an auditor discovers it?

By addressing potential liabilities early, you can avoid penalties, interest, and reputational risks while preserving your business’ financial health. This proactive approach not only safeguards your business but also positions you to negotiate more favorable terms with tax authorities. Don’t let sales tax exposure catch you off guard—discover how to tackle it on your own terms and achieve compliance with confidence.

This webinar equips you with strategies to protect your business while minimizing costs. Attendees will uncover how to use voluntary disclosure agreements (VDAs), amnesty programs, and settlements to resolve sales tax liabilities. Gain actionable steps to negotiate favorable terms, explore solutions if you’re already registered or under audit, and confidently decide the best compliance path for your company.

Who should attend?

This webinar is intended for financial and operations personnel—including tax, general accounting, accounts payable, sales, tax technology, purchasing and credit—who deal with sales and use tax as part of their responsibilities. The course is also designed for general practitioners, with minimal to no experience.

Whether you are dealing with a business big or small, and a potential debt from hundreds to millions of dollars, VDAs could be your saving grace.

It is essential that you develop a clear understanding of voluntary disclosure agreements (VDAs), amnesty programs, and settlement options. Then, we’ll dive into strategies to negotiate favorable terms and minimize financial exposure. And finally, you will be provided with steps to address liabilities both proactively and during an audit.
