The first VATNews was released on 1 March 1995 and the Afrikaans version thereof, BTW Nuus, was first published in August 2004. These documents were used as communication tools to inform stakeholders of new developments in terms of the Value-Added Tax Act, 1991, and were published twice a year.
 
The VAT News / BTW Nuus has been replaced by the VAT Connect from August 2011.
 
The latest copies of the VAT Connect are available under Newsletters.
 
The earlier copies of the VATNews are listed in the order they were issued for ease of reference.
