Overview

Each year USAID contractors and grantees procure millions of dollars in goods to implement US foreign assistance programs with assessed VAT exceeding 200 percent.  VAT exemption or reimbursement procedures vary by country.  Wouldn’t it be nice to know the procedures during the bidding preparation?  What staffing to budget?  Is the host government really going to reimburse the VAT before close-out?  At program start-up wouldn’t it be nice to get the reimbursement procedures on the first day!  Tired of going back to the vender for five original invoices? With this product, it will take all the guesswork out of VAT exemption.  Just buy the product, comply with the reimbursement procedures and relax?
