im not sure. i refuse to do business with anyone in the EU simply because Im not interested in negotiating tax rates with 27 different tax authorities.
not worth all the bureaucracy.
- jacquesm 10y agoThat's what the 'MOSS' part of VATMOSS is all about: "Mini One Stop Shop", a way to take all your business across the various EU countries allowing you to specify which country you had how much turnover in and then paying this to a single account which will take care of disbursement. I used this system for as long as it has been active and it works but is still ridiculously labor intensive for small amounts. The bigger problem is that these rules were made to target companies like spotify and amazon who are large enough to simply work around the rule, effectively penalizing SMBs without any upside. Highly annoying.
- dullgiulio 10y agoWould you mind explaining how these companies work around the rule? These services are all payments with credit card, it shouldn't be so hard to trace them.
- jacquesm 10y agoThe biggest ace they can play is process the payments outside of the EU.
