These registrations are included in the Pan-European Package

With this package, we take care of the following registrations for you in one go, so you can get started doing business right away with Amazon's Pan-Europa package.

You get these registrations with the Pan-European package:

What if I don’t have a VAT registration abroad?

If you do have stock stored there, you are still liable for VAT. This includes VAT registration and filings. Failing to file these declarations results in a surcharge.

This backcharge is always accompanied by a €68 late declaration penalty. In addition, a fine for non-payment, underpayment or late payment can amount to 3% of the amount to be paid. This can range from a minimum of €50,- to a maximum of €5.514,-.

When do I need a VAT number?

There are several situations in which you need a foreign VAT number:

  • Once you store stock abroad.
  • When you exceed certain European VAT thresholds. Then you need a local VAT number.

So even when you sell through Amazon FBA (including Amazon Pan-European) you need local VAT registrations. In fact, when you sell through Amazon FBA, you give Amazon permission to redistribute your inventory to fulfillment centers. So keep in mind that you need a VAT registration in each of these countries!

Don’t worry, Staxxer can apply for VAT numbers in any EU member state. Even if the (EU) country where you want a registration is not listed here, we can apply for it for you.

Where can I use the VAT registration?

You can use the VAT number for any business purpose. For example, when selling through Amazon, Bol.com, Shopify or another platform. The number is also valid if you are going to do business locally that requires a European VAT number.

You need a VAT number when you store stock in another EU country or when you go over a country’s threshold amount. You need to keep an eye on this: especially if you sell through marketplaces such as Amazon, Bol.com or Shopify.

Not sure if you need a VAT number? Let’s have a chat. We can also apply for a VAT number for you.

The One Stop Shop (OSS) arrangement allows you to declare your cross-border sales in one portal. For example, you no longer need VAT registration in every country unless you stock up there. Do you sell more than €10,000,- annually to other EU countries? Then you qualify for the One Stop Shop. Sign up for the One Stop Shop can be done through “My Tax Business”.

Your sales should then be reported quarterly in your One Stop Shop declaration. Here you specify how much VAT you have to pay in each European country, depending on the local VAT rate of your products.

If you declare your VAT through the One Stop Shop, but also have stock in another EU country, you still need a VAT number there. A good rule of thumb is that you need VAT registration in a country as soon as you have stock there.

Want to save time and let us do your One Stop Shop declaration?

As a seller on Amazon, you have the choice to opt for Amazon FBA: this way, you distribute your inventory across Amazon’s European fulfillment centers in a snap. A good option if you want to go international! With FBA, your products also get to customers faster, and you have a better chance of winning the Buy Box.

If you choose Amazon Pan European FBA, Amazon will distribute your inventory across several countries. Because you’re stocking up there, you need a VAT number in each of those countries. To make it a little easier for you, we’ve put those countries into one package. You get a VAT number for each Pan-European country, so you can start selling right away. Our package includes one:

  • German VAT number
  • Polish VAT number
  • Czech VAT number
  • French VAT number
  • Spanish VAT number
  • Italian VAT number

Are all the VAT numbers in? Then we can also make sure that you remain VAT-compliant in these countries. That way, you no longer have to worry about your VAT, and you have more time left over to grow your business.

If you have a VAT registration abroad, you will also have to file VAT returns there. How often and when to do so, depends on the country. It can be monthly, or quarterly.

We understand that you don’t feel like doing all the VAT administration. So leave it to us: link your sales accounts to Staxcloud, so we can always accurately file your European VAT return. Then you won’t spend any more time on VAT returns.
