Hi ,
My friend is opening a new firm at bhiwandi but already he is having a firm at mumbai with VAT TIN number.
business nature is same, name of the business is same ,.. just a new branch of it.
is he will get new VAT TIN number or existing Mumbai location's VAT TIN number will ok for new branch of bhiwandi
pls advice.
Existing Firm's New Branch Can Use Same VAT TIN; New Firm Requires Separate Number A user inquired about whether a new VAT TIN number is needed for a new branch of an existing firm in Bhiwandi, given that the firm already has a VAT TIN number for its Mumbai location. The nature and name of the business remain unchanged. The response clarified that if the new location is a branch of the existing firm, the same VAT TIN can be used. However, if it is considered a new firm, a separate VAT TIN is required. (AI Summary)
