Information on VAT calculation / One Stop Shop procedure
VAT system in the EU
The European Union has revised the sales tax system specifically for e-commerce. This is intended to prevent tax avoidance for online retailers inside and outside the EU in the future. This regulation applies to cross-border B2C trade and comes into force on July 1, 2021.
