TAX LAW SUMMER SCHOOL

Lisbon, Portugal
24-28 June 2013


In June 2013, Catolica Global School of Law will be offering the second edition of its Tax Summer School comprising two programmes, on Value-Added Tax and Transfer Pricing.

Catolica's Tax Summer School programmes are fully lectured in English by leading international academics and professionals and are aimed at students and practitioners willing to explore two of the most fascinating and complex areas of modern taxation.

The VAT Programme starts with a one-day introduction to the fundamental concepts of value-added taxation. In the following days, sessions will be held on some of the most important topics of EU VAT. Similarly, the Transfer Pricing Program starts with a one-day intensive introduction to the fundamentals of Transfer Pricing, while in the following days critical topics of transfer pricing will be covered.

Both programs run from Monday to Friday, the Transfer Pricing sessions being held in the morning, the VAT sessions in the afternoon. The programs may thus be attended separately or simultaneously.
