The EU reform, also known as the VAT Digital Package, affects all online retailers selling products to consumers in other EU member states. Tax and customs processes have become even more complex due to the reform, presenting retailers with new challenges.<\/p><p class=\"theme-wp-block gb-responsive-581393-identifier\">Originally intended as relief, Amazon sellers or those using the Amazon structures <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sellerlogic.com\/en\/blog\/amazon-fba\/\">FBA<\/a>, Pan-EU, or CEE are now facing significant legal changes that they find difficult to cope with. What exactly has changed? What do they need to consider when using an Amazon warehouse? And how should they react now?

Since July 1, a <strong>delivery threshold<\/strong> of only 10,000 euros applies to all EU cross-border sales to end consumers. Once this amount is exceeded, the seller is liable for VAT in the respective country. Sellers must register in the corresponding country, apply the currently valid and correct tax rates there, and pay the VAT to the local authorities. The associated bureaucratic effort is intended to be minimized by the newly introduced One-Stop-Shop (OSS).<\/p><p class=\"theme-wp-block gb-responsive-318089-identifier\">The <strong>OSS<\/strong> is provided across Europe by the respective tax authorities. In Germany, the OSS procedure is offered by the Federal Central Tax Office (BZSt). This point of contact allows retailers to declare and pay all sales within the European Union centrally in just one EU member state (and not in 27!). This single declaration includes all goods sales, broken down by individual member states, along with the VAT incurred on those sales made in the EU member states. The payment of the resulting VAT liability is also made centrally to this single point of contact.<\/p><h3 class=\"theme-wp-block wp-block-heading gb-responsive-958858-identifier\"><strong>OSS Special Cases<\/strong><\/h3><p class=\"theme-wp-block gb-responsive-221199-identifier\">Special cases may arise when using the Amazon FBA program, as goods can be stored outside the seller&#8217;s country of establishment. We present three of them in more detail:<\/p><h4 class=\"theme-wp-block wp-block-heading gb-responsive-570630-identifier\"><strong>1. Warehouse and Customer are in the Same Country, the Seller in Another<\/strong><\/h4><p class=\"theme-wp-block gb-responsive-815754-identifier\">The German seller Meiser, based in Cologne, sells wristwatches through Amazon. A customer from Poland orders a watch from his German online shop. Since he uses the FBA program, part of his inventory has also been stored in a warehouse in Poland, from which the shipment is now being made. The delivery is therefore local, and the OSS procedure does not need to be applied in this case.<\/p><div class=\"wp-block-image gb-responsive-896519-identifier\"><figure class=\"theme-wp-block aligncenter size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/d2bw95mh2ee04s.cloudfront.net\/prod\/content\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/23141106\/OSS-Sonderfa%CC%88lle-Bsp.1--844x475.jpg\" alt=\"The VAT Digital Package \u2013 What You Need to Pay Attention To\" class=\"wp-image-13253\"><\/figure><\/div><h4 class=\"theme-wp-block wp-block-heading gb-responsive-471592-identifier\"><strong>2. Shop and Customer are in the Same Country, the Warehouse in Another<\/strong><\/h4><p class=\"theme-wp-block gb-responsive-976957-identifier\">Again, a wristwatch is ordered from Meiser by a customer from Dresden. Here, too, Amazon always uses the shortest shipping route and ships the goods not from Germany, but from a warehouse in Poland, near the German border. Although the seller and customer are in Germany, the OSS procedure applies, as the delivery of the goods is made from Poland.<\/p><div class=\"wp-block-image gb-responsive-972930-identifier\"><figure class=\"theme-wp-block aligncenter size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/d2bw95mh2ee04s.cloudfront.net\/prod\/content\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/23141105\/OSS-Sonderfa%CC%88lle-Bsp.2-844x475.jpg\" alt=\"OSS Special Cases Example 2\" class=\"wp-image-13262\"><\/figure><\/div><h4 class=\"theme-wp-block wp-block-heading gb-responsive-260008-identifier\"><strong>3. Transfer Between Two Warehouses in Different Countries<\/strong><\/h4><p class=\"theme-wp-block gb-responsive-510075-identifier\">Amazon has determined that many watches from Meiser are ordered from France. To save on individual shipping costs and delivery time, part of Meiser&#8217;s inventory is stored in France. This involves a transfer from a German warehouse to a French warehouse. In this case, the OSS does not apply, as it is only an intra-community transfer without a sales process.<\/p><div class=\"wp-block-image gb-responsive-708126-identifier\"><figure class=\"theme-wp-block aligncenter size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/d2bw95mh2ee04s.cloudfront.net\/prod\/content\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/23141105\/OSS-Sonderfa%CC%88lle-Bsp.3-844x475.jpg\" alt=\"OSS Special Cases Example 3\" class=\"wp-image-13267\"><\/figure><\/div><h3 class=\"theme-wp-block wp-block-heading gb-responsive-397871-identifier\"><strong>Summary<\/strong><\/h3><p class=\"theme-wp-block gb-responsive-788185-identifier\">It is clear that Amazon sellers who want to use Amazon warehouses as well as the OSS face an enormous additional effort, as they not only have to continue registering locally and submitting a local VAT return, but also need to consider a number of special cases. Unfortunately, the promised minimization of bureaucratic additional effort does not apply to all sellers.<\/p><p class=\"theme-wp-block gb-responsive-99486-identifier\">Important for all deliveries is the correct taxation of goods depending on the destination country. For this, the application of the correct <strong>tax rates<\/strong> is essential. However, with the multitude of special regulations and exceptions, this is hardly achievable. The database published by the EU Commission with VAT rates for the EU-27, which is supposed to provide relief, is partially incomplete, erroneous, and not up to date. This poses a competitive disadvantage for Amazon sellers, which can lead to tax returns being incomplete or even incorrect.<\/p><blockquote class=\"theme-wp-block wp-block-quote desktop-bg-style-circle xl-bg-style-circle lg-bg-style-circle md-bg-style-circle sm-bg-style-circle gb-responsive-248873-identifier desktop-gb-has-icon xl-gb-has-icon lg-gb-has-icon md-gb-has-icon sm-gb-has-icon desktop-icon-size-2 xl-icon-size-2 lg-icon-size-2 md-icon-size-2 sm-icon-size-2 is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\"><p class=\"theme-wp-block gb-responsive-964603-identifier\"><strong><span style=\"font-size:0.9em\" class=\"has-font-size\">Caution When Using Amazon&#8217;s VCS VAT Calculation Service<\/span><\/strong><\/p><p class=\"theme-wp-block gb-responsive-41687-identifier\"><span style=\"font-size:0.8em\" class=\"has-font-size\">Here<\/span> <span style=\"font-size:0.8em\" class=\"has-font-size\">only the gross price of the product is displayed on invoices if there is no VAT ID in the respective country to which the delivery is made. From the pure transaction data, it is very difficult for sellers and tax advisors to subsequently determine <span class=\"has-inline-color has-black-color\">which<\/span> tax rate should have been applied.<\/span><\/p><\/blockquote><h2 class=\"theme-wp-block wp-block-heading gb-responsive-376809-identifier\"><strong>Solutions<\/strong><\/h2><p class=\"theme-wp-block gb-responsive-946135-identifier\">It is evident that sellers must engage intensively with tax policy and its adjustments to remain competitive in the market. But what exactly can or must they change to act correctly in the future? The first and most important step is for sellers to clarify which regulations apply to them from now on and how to implement the tax regulations correctly. Amazon sellers must particularly keep track of this.<\/p><p class=\"theme-wp-block gb-responsive-225566-identifier\">Since individual sellers are understandably overwhelmed by this, it is worthwhile to seek support on this complex topic. A first sensible step is to have a conversation with a tax advisor. They can take stock and show to what extent the seller&#8217;s Amazon business is affected by the new regulations of the EU reform. Based on this, it should then be considered how to handle the resulting reporting obligations and which registrations are now necessary.<\/p><p class=\"theme-wp-block gb-responsive-66257-identifier\">In addition to the stocktaking, technical solutions can provide relief. As the amount of information and data increases due to the new processes, automation options are a good choice for optimizing processes in the long term. For example, the correct tax rates and exceptions can be automatically assigned to individual items and continuously updated. An example of this is the temporary reduction of the German VAT from 19% to 16%, which could be automatically and correctly assigned through technical solutions.<\/p><div class=\"wp-block-image gb-responsive-782963-identifier\"><figure class=\"theme-wp-block aligncenter size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"844\" height=\"443\" src=\"https:\/\/d2bw95mh2ee04s.cloudfront.net\/prod\/content\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/23141102\/Mehrwertsteuer-Digitalpaket-.png\" alt=\"VAT Digital Package\" class=\"wp-image-13299\" srcset=\"https:\/\/d2bw95mh2ee04s.cloudfront.net\/prod\/content\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/23141102\/Mehrwertsteuer-Digitalpaket--407x214.png 407w, https:\/\/d2bw95mh2ee04s.cloudfront.net\/prod\/content\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/23141102\/Mehrwertsteuer-Digitalpaket--768x403.png 768w, https:\/\/d2bw95mh2ee04s.cloudfront.net\/prod\/content\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/23141102\/Mehrwertsteuer-Digitalpaket-.png 844w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 844px) 100vw, 844px\" \/><\/figure><\/div><p class=\"theme-wp-block gb-responsive-973967-identifier\">eClear offers solutions for both the use of the OSS and the Europe-wide application of the correct VAT rates.

Additionally, the end-to-end solution ensures the tax-compliant application of the applicable VAT rates for all cross-border B2C transactions in the EU-27.<\/p><p class=\"theme-wp-block gb-responsive-504003-identifier\">eClear <a href=\"https:\/\/eclear.com\/de\/produkt\/vatrules\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener sponsored nofollow\"><strong>VATRules<\/strong><\/a> is a database of VAT rates for products from all 27 EU countries. The database contains 1 million tax codes with over 300,000 exceptions. The tax rates and rules are clearly assigned to the respective products and product groups. Using a 14-digit code, all applicable exceptions, reductions, and VAT regulations in the EU are captured. The continuously updated tax rates are automatically provided on demand, embedded in order processes, and applied accordingly.<\/p><h2 class=\"theme-wp-block wp-block-heading gb-responsive-171473-identifier\"><strong>Challenge as an Opportunity<\/strong><\/h2><p class=\"theme-wp-block gb-responsive-726963-identifier\">Even though the topics of &#8220;tax&#8221; and &#8220;tax policy&#8221; may seem to present many stumbling blocks at first glance, it is worthwhile to invest in this area in the long term. In addition to the advantages that arise in tax reporting, optimized processes also have a positive impact on margin and pricing strategies. Furthermore, technical support for tax-related processes and the assignment of the correct tax rates simplifies expansion into additional countries. The time that sellers invest now in optimizing processes will ultimately pay off.<\/p><p class=\"theme-wp-block gb-responsive-278897-identifier has-small-font-size\">Image credits in the order of the images: \u00a9maslakhatul \u2013 stock.adobe.com \/ \u00a9 eClear \/ \u00a9Irina Strelnikova \u2013 stock.adobe.com<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Since July 1, 2021, new requirements and regulations apply to cross-border trade.
