Hello

frosty dagger
#

Hello!

slim sierra
#

Okay so to summarize you are seeing reverse VAT correctly for a business when they enter their business tax ID but you don't see tax applied for individuals through auto tax (with no business tax ID)?

frosty dagger
#

Yes, that is correct.

#

It is correct that no VAT should be charged for businesses or individuals outside the EU. But inside the EU individuals should be charged VAT.

#

Which is not happening.

slim sierra
#

Gotcha, and the above request ID you provided is an example of it not happening but you would expect it to, yes?

frosty dagger
#

Yes, correct. That is a request ID where I have the Tax ID removed.

slim sierra
#

So yeah that indicates you haven't registered to collect taxes for Germany yet.

frosty dagger
#

So if I understand correctly, I need to add a registration for every european country where I plan to sell my products?

slim sierra
#

No there should be an option to add a registration to collect from all of EU

#

(If I remember correctly)

frosty dagger
#

I only see a list of individual countries, but maybe I'm missing something.

slim sierra
#

I believe OSS does it, right?

#

You should be able to select that when you choose an EU country

frosty dagger
#

OSS is only needed when having a revenue, where I'm not at. Below that revenue a registration is not needed.

slim sierra
#

Ah okay, I'm not too familiar with EU taxes. It does seem you'll need a registration for each country in that case afaict.

frosty dagger
#

I believe that's true. Which is why I'm not sure why there is no tax being collected.

slim sierra

#

When I do business with individuals in the EU (I sell goods throughout the EU), I just need to charge my local tax for individuals.

slim sierra
#

Yep, so you need a registration for those countries

frosty dagger
#

If there is no way to collect tax without OSS, I'll have to see what I can do to register OSS.

slim sierra
#

Add a German registration and then test again like you did above

#

And you should see tax collected

frosty dagger
#

Where did you say the option was to add my OSS?

#

Let me check

#

It's not collecting tax either. However, according to the registration it will let me collect 19 %, while the tax I need to collect is 21% (Dutch tax)

slim sierra
#

You added a registration and it isn't collecting?

frosty dagger
#

Yes correct.

#

I removed it again afterwards

slim sierra
#

Can you add it again and provide me the Checkout Session or PaymentIntent ID that you tested with?

frosty dagger
#

Sorry, I chose the wrong option

#

It is collecting when I say I'm registered.

#

However, it is collecting the german 19% instead of my local 21%

#

(which is what my government expects me to charge other countries)

#

Countries in the EU that is.

#

Sorry, I was wrong...

#

I just read through my government's website again. And it is correct that I should charge the VAT of the destination country.

#

So I think it should now work as expected. However, OSS would really be a better option as I'm expecting lots of small transactions

#

Could you tell me where I can add my OSS in Stripe?

#

I just checked with my accountant as well, he confirms the 19%. Silly me.

slim sierra
#

Yeah when you click "Add registration" and select a country then there should be a button to click for OSS

slim sierra
frosty dagger
#

Ok, I got it. I had to remove my own country and add it again, then I get the OSS option.

#

Terrific. You've been of a tremendous help.

#

Thank you so much, bismarck!

slim sierra
#

Sure thing!

frosty dagger
#

That's all then! Much appreciated and I hope you have great rest of your day!
