  They have not complied with the filing of forms in time and on time with the tax office, causing a series of economic damages; reason: you only pay a basic fee. In addition, when they offer to submit the forms after the deadline, they demand an additional fee, which is not exactly cheap.

  Don't Use for EU VAT - Avask are a nightmare to deal with and you'll wait for ever while you wait for them to communicate with the company in Spain they outsource the work to. So far we've waited 15 months for our Spanish VAT refund! Avask outsource this to another company. Although we were told multiple times that we just needed to wait, after a whole year we were told that this company had not created our VAT account correctly and we needed to start with all the paperwork again from the beginning. Avask have accepted responsibility but so far will not recompense us for our true loss (they offered a low amount instead). If this changes this review will be updated accordingly. Update 1 March 2023 - now waited 20 months. Still no Spanish VAT refund, still chasing them. Avask have asked for yet more paperwork (after telling us numerous times that they already had everything that was required) saying the Spanish authorities have requested this. 6 weeks ago we asked for evidence that the Spanish authorities had really asked for this additional paperwork (including a copy of every invoice for every item sold on Amazon...). So far they have not provided the evidence, or even replied..... will post again if they do. Update 10th March - they have now replied to ask for payment for services, still nothing relating to the Spanish VAT refund..... Update 16th March - If I do nothing I will probably wait for ever, so I have now phoned around some other accountants that deal with Spanish VAT and explained the problems we are having with AVASK and the company in Spain that they outsource the work to. Within an hour on the phone I found out the name of the document that Avask have not been able to find in the past 9 weeks!! I let Avask know the name of this document and asked them to verify this is indeed what they want. I got a message saying they would reply.... that's it, not an actual reply with anything useful, just that they will reply (sometime in the distant future if the past is anything to go by...), and another asking for payment for services again... Unbelievably, on their website they still claim to the EU VAT experts. I will keep updating as things (hopefully) progress.

  We are customers since 2018 for our foreignt VAT filing and handling. Communication has always been difficult. We had to pay some fines because of late filing several times, getting the numbers so late, that we literally only had 2-3 days sometimes to do all checks and payments. As of late it became much WORSE: Since July 2022 our amazon account is closed due to VAT irregularities. AVASK claims that they filed everything correctly, however reading the many bad reviews I am quite suspecious. Also they dont seem to make much of an effort to resolve this issue. Now since October 2022 our spanish account has problems, because they lacked to renew our spanisch VAT ID in time. Again they couldnt care less and take it with great ease, pointing to colleague who is in her holidays. And we need to re-register (which takes many months). All because they did not take the responsibilities seriously. Also I am waiting since 3 weeks to finally get an old missing VAT report, that I ams chasing up again and again, without any luck. They would not even give a credit for this. Avoid at all costs, or pay the price!!

  Literally, the worst. If you can find someone - anyone - else to file your VAT for you, I would. They weren't great to work with and it was always difficult to get anyone to respond to questions. But the kicker for me was...I sold my company last year and told them I was no longer in need of their services yet they continued to charge me (FOR A FULL YEAR) and when I tried to get in touch with someone to get this corrected, no one got back to me. Still waiting for my refunds....

  (Translated by Google) Total lack of professionalism depending on the interlocutor you have. Dispute management is terrible. Our company has more than 15 years of seniority and this is the first time that we have had problems with our VAT declarations and the payment thereof. Does not surround itself with good service providers in reporting countries. Amazon no longer offers a partnership with them, amazing!!!! (Original) Manque totalement de professionnalisme suivant l'interlocuteur que vous avez. La gestion des litiges est lamentable. Notre entreprise à plus de 15 ans d'ancienneté et c'est bien la première fois que nous avons des problèmes sur les déclarations de nos TVA et le règlement de celle-ci. Ne s'entoure pas des bons prestataires dans les pays de déclaration. Amazon ne propose plus de partenariat avec eux, étonnant !!!!

  worst tax company I've ever had to deal with. They missed filing my annual report and then I have to chase after them for months with many many many emails. I got a tax penalty because of it and had to file with a separate company by the time I found out. Stay away if you value your time and money. They are the worst company. They are not accountable for anything they miss, and you are dead to them once you move on. I try to get a refund for the penalty and for the late filing fee for late report but they don't reply and ghost you or just reply with incomplete information wasting hours of your time. The kind of business practices that show you are just a number to them and try to outlast you by not replying to emails, wearing you down to the point you forget about things, or and just plainly would rather forget about $300 or so euro they owe you because going after them with emails is fruitless or takes thousands of dollars more worth your time. They break you down with lack of progress in resolving matters taking months sometimes. It’s like a toxic relationship with your boyfriend or girlfriend except these are supposed to be people you are paying to take care of you! I would not recommend at all.

  We got great support from Virginio Marchetta every time we had to ship products to the UK. The whole customs clearance process was under control and all communications were polite and professional. Great service.
