"Value-added tax (VAT) constitutes a major source of revenue for the national budgets of the Member States. The VAT system, which is based on legislation adopted at European level and applied at national level, suffers from numerous shortcomings which do not make it fully efficient and compatible with the requirements of a true single market. On 1 December 2010, the Commission launched a Green Paper on the future of VAT. The aim of the Green Paper is to generate a broad based debate with all the stakeholders on the evaluation of the current VAT system and the possible ways forward to strengthen its coherence with the single market and its capacity as a revenue raiser, whilst reducing the cost of compliance. The Green Paper covers, in particular, the treatment of cross-border supplies, as well as other key issues, addressing tax neutrality, the degree of harmonisation required in the single market and reducing red tape, whilst ensuring VAT revenues for Member States."@en1
