About the Event
The EU VAT rules for e-commerce are designated to eliminate distortions for competition that benefit non-EU sellers, reduce compliance costs for online traders, and make the VAT system fraud-proof.
In recent years, the VAT rules for e-commerce within the EU have been subject to an ongoing change process. For example, in 2019, new rules for destination principle or simplified registration for non-resident suppliers (one stop shop) were introduced.
Next year, the EU VAT rules for e-commerce transactions will change again significantly regarding low-value goods, distance selling, and VAT liability for the online platform: The new e-commerce VAT Package will have an impact on a wide variety of stakeholders (online marketplaces, e-retailers, customs agents, postal operators, and courier companies) involved in remote sales of goods to EU private individuals.
Join our webinar hosted by Vertex and Deloitte and learn about:
- The impact of the e-commerce VAT Package on EU and non-EU e-commerce from the seller's perspective
- How these new VAT obligations will impact various e-commerce business models
- How to prepare for these upcoming changes
