VAT stands for Value Added Tax. It applies to most goods and services that are bought and sold for use or consumption in Europe.
Some of the most common reasons that may prompt a VAT registration are listed below.
- Importing good into the EU and your business is based outside the EU.
- Storing goods in the EU whether it’s in a warehouse or stored in a fulfilment centre like Amazon.
- Selling to business customers based in EU countries different from the EU country from where the goods are dispatched.
- Selling to EU consumers from another EU country above the ‘distance selling threshold’.
- Domestic sales by an EU established seller where sales exceed the ‘domestic selling threshold’.
