VATWIRE AND KANOO TRAVEL PARTNERSHIP

Vatwire, a leading provider of VAT/GST reclaim services, and Kanoo Travel, a prominent travel management company, have announced an exciting partnership. Through this collaboration, Kanoo Travel will offer Vatwire's cutting-edge VAT/GST recovery solutions to its clients worldwide, enabling them to unlock significant cost savings on their foreign business expenses, including travel, aviation, and imports.

The partnership brings together the strengths of both companies, enhancing Kanoo Travel's offerings and empowering thousands of clients across the Middle East and globally to recover substantial amounts of Value-Added Tax (VAT) and Goods and Services Tax (GST) paid on their international business operations.

By leveraging Vatwire's advanced technologies, including machine learning and artificial intelligence, Kanoo Travel clients will soon be able to streamline the process of reclaiming VAT/GST taxes included in their foreign travel, aviation, imports, and many other business expenses from various countries. With international VAT rates reaching as high as 25%, this partnership presents a significant opportunity for clients to recover costs they may have previously overlooked, immediately boosting their profitability. In some cases, clients can even claim VAT refunds dating back five years, potentially amounting to substantial sums of money that would have otherwise been missed.

"VAT/GST reclaim is often overlooked, and the money is lost in the corporate environment," said Fahim Jalali, CEO of Kanoo Travel. "Through our exciting partnership with Vatwire, we are delighted to be able to add a valuable service, driving deeper savings for our all-important clients. Partnering with Vatwire highlights our commitment to adding value to our corporate client’s way beyond business travel. We are delighted to offer our services across our network of Kanoo Travel offices, once again leading the way in introducing the best and most innovative of travel products and services for the industry."
