Ireland implement rule changes for the VAT treatment of vouchers

This change follows the EU Voucher Directive amendments which harmonised the VAT treatment of vouchers across the EU and will affect retailers with promotional or loyalty programs in the country. Our previous article gives further explanation of how these changes will work.
