Side by side
Consultation participation and their own register declarations, side by side. Counts, not judgments — participation is not influence.
Counts here are a floor, never a total: they cover the 583 consultation files tracked so far (42,224 submissions, mostly 2025–26), so an organization's real filing history is larger, not smaller.

The VAT system within the European coach sector is deeply fragmented, with huge variations in the way Member States treat these services applying a zero percent VAT rate, a low rate or, in some cases even a high rate (e.g. 0% in Estonia, 8% in Poland and 25% in Croatia).
