  • You carry out intra-Community supplies of goods from that Member State;
  • You carry out exports from that Member State;
  • You carry out sales of goods and/or services to private individuals or to persons not subject to VAT;
  • You carry out taxable services instead of services for which no reverse charge mechanism is applicable.
  • You wish to benefit from facilitations such as the reverse charge of import VAT;

We are experienced in complex international flows and in managing the volume of your operations.

IOSS / OSS Registration: Guiding you through the E-commerce VAT reform

The Mini One Stop Shop (MOSS) is an electronic system allowing taxable persons supplying telecommunication, broadcasting and electronic services to consumers in the EU to declare and pay, in a single Member State, the VAT due in all EU Member States.

From 1st July 2021, the Mini One-Stop Shop (MOSS) is extended to :

  • all B2C services provided in Member States where the provider is not established,
  • to intra-Community distance selling of goods,
  • and certain domestic supplies of goods.

It will thus become a one-stop shop (OSS). In addition, a new scheme is created for the declaration and payment of VAT on distance sales of low-value goods imported from third countries or third territories: the One-Stop Shop for Imports (IOSS).

 

If you are performing Distance Selling of Imported Goods and opt for IOSS, you must appoint an intermediary who will carry out all IOSS formalities on your behalf. Thanks to IOSS, you will benefit from import VAT and customs duty exemptions for your so-called low-value shipments (i.e. not exceeding €150 in intrinsic value). This intermediary will have to master the VAT rules but also have a good knowledge of the customs regulations.

Contact us for a quick registration for your IOSS / OSS number!
