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 proposal for a regulation on combating late payment, presented by the European Commissioner for the Internal Market, Thierry Breton, on 12 September 2023, raises major concerns in the Confederation of SMEs. We consider that reducing payment times to 30 days, as proposed in the Regulation, will not contribute to improving the liquidity situation of companies.

CPME agrees that the current VAT system remains complex and burdensome, particularly for the smallest businesses. Beyond the fight against fraud, it is difficult for small and medium-sized enterprises to take a final decision at this stage. Indeed, the choices made are still too broad to have an overall view of the final devices.

The Federation of Swedish Business Owners (Företagarna) wishes to give the following feedback regarding the proposed Council regulation. We acknowledge the need for further harmonised rules regarding VAT in cross-border trade in the single market. The most central aspects of the sharing of information between member states' authorities are necessary to facilitiate simplified VAT handling.
