The company wants to be profitable within three years because of the planned IPO. Awaiting that, they sold leasing company Xchange and fired head of finance Prabir Adarkar and use a company registration in Amsterdam to avoid UK sales tax. The British treasury therefore lost 23 million pounds last year. Uber uses a fiscal construction whereby the company benefits from exemptions in both the British and Dutch tax laws. The 40,000 British Uber drivers do not have to pay sales tax up to £ 85,000 as an independent entrepreneur. Want to read more about Uber visit our webpage at https://www.bvs.nl/uber/
