Over the last few months Atlas continued growing its Indirect Tax and Customs practice. After global Indirect Tax experts Johan Visser and Dasha Korobeynyk joining Atlas, we are also delighted to welcome Gooike van Slooten in our team.

Gooike has extensive experience in customs and indirect tax matters relating to international supply chains, including customs classification and valuation matters. He also focusses on tax dispute resolution, with an exceptional understanding, not only of EU customs law, but also of EU law in general, including EU state aid issues, and procedural law. He has litigated procedures, before the different courts in the Netherlands, including the Dutch Supreme Court, as well as before the European Court of Justice.

Gooike teaches at the universities in Amsterdam, Leiden and Groningen, as well as at the Dutch association of tax advisors (NOB) and is a regular contributor to authoritative fiscal publications such as the BNB, WFR, TFB and NL Fiscaal.
