VAT Services on Amazon ends on October 31, 2024

Announcement reposted from Amazon Europe:

We continuously evaluate our programmes and services to ensure that they meet the evolving needs of our sellers. After careful consideration, we’ve decided to end the VAT Services on Amazon programme on October 31, 2024. We’re committed to helping you to manage your VAT obligations and are working to launch an improved programme by 2025.

If you use VAT Services on Amazon, you can continue to work with your current tax provider outside of VAT Services on Amazon for your VAT filing activities:

  • In August 2024, your tax provider will contact you to sign their terms and conditions, and re-activate your user account to on-board you to their platform.
  • Your tax provider will continue to manage your monthly or quarterly VAT filing with VAT Services on Amazon until the end of September 2024 filing period, due in October 2024. Afterwards, you’ll be automatically unsubscribed from VAT Services on Amazon.
  • Your current tax provider will manage all future VAT filings and charge you directly, starting with your October VAT filing, due in November 2024 (for monthly filing) or January 2025 (for quarterly filing). To find out more about tax providers and their pricing, go to Manage Your VAT Services.
  • You can download any VAT documents (for example, VAT registration certificates, proofs of filing, and registration documents) from Seller Central until August 31, 2025. New VAT returns filed after October 31, 2024, will be automatically available on your tax provider’s platform.

If you don’t want to continue with your current tax provider after October 31, click the link in your Seller Central case log to opt out and contact a tax provider of your choice by October 1, 2024, to ensure you continue to meet your VAT obligations.
