A year after the EU VAT in the Digital Age (VIDA) proposals were published it seems increasingly likely that the introduction of the measures will be delayed. The original timetable had intended the measures be approved by the end of 2023, with implementation in stages between 1 January 2025 to 1 January 2028.
