UEMS registration to Belgian VAT
Further to the expansion of its activities,
particularly the development of the
EACCME, the UEMS was confronted with the
need to clarify its situation in relation to tax
authorities in Belgium where it is
established
The conclusion appears to be it is subject to VAT under
Belgian law

UEMS Sub-accounts
The UEMS is committed to improve its financial
transparency. By law, the UEMS has to create
sub-accounts for each of its Specialists
Sections. Further to the decision taken in
Prague to start with some Sections, the
Secretariat has contacted the bank and created
sub-accounts for several Sections.
