Freeport, Bahamas -
The Grand Bahama Port Authority served as host to the four day Value Added Tax (VAT) Training Sessions, which officially came to a successful close today at the Pelican
Bay Hotel.
With an
overwhelming attendance of almost 400 licencees over the four day span, business
persons showed a keen interest in the information that was made
available to them by way of a dual
partnership between VAT Unit representative, Keith Worrell and Dario
Roberts of Bahabeach Web/IT Development. Both Worrell and Roberts
served as the event’s key presenters.
Sale
of goods & services, trade/industrial manufacturing, transport and
professional services were the headlining sectors targeted
at the informative undertaking.
GBPA
Business Services Manager LaShawn Dames said that she was pleased to
lead the event, noting its importance to licencees in the Freeport area.
“This event was truly a success! I am so pleased that licencees
were able to partake in this VAT Training seminar because a lot of
persons have a great deal of misconceptions about VAT,”
shares Dames. “The key
presenters did a good job in dispelling any pre conceived concerns
amongst the various business professionals that were represented here
over the past four days,” said Dames.
The
Grand Bahama Port Authority is pleased to have hosted an event focused
on VAT, as the high attendance rate was proof that there is a need
amongst business professionals who seek clarity on Value Added Tax.
Licencees of The Port area and all residents of Grand Bahama are
encouraged to continue further education on VAT as we all prepare for
the 2015 year.
