Indeed, when speaking of acquisitions, or more particularly of expenses acquired from foreign suppliers, the following considerations must be kept in mind:The VAT that must be paid on acquisitions to the AFC (by means of the self-taxation mechanism in the VAT return), is 100% recoverable, partially or not at all recoverable (0%), depending on the structure of the turnover achieved by the company in question.
