After you have completed your VAT registration, you can start paying your VAT. In order to do so, our software calculates and prepares VAT returns, which then are filed with the Tax Authorities.

Please see below the VAT return calculation process:

• After your account has been successfully set up, our software will start pulling your sales data

• The pulled data is subjected to a series of complex scenarios following mandatory Tax office guidelines before being transferred to reports for the different countries.

• Based on the settings in the software, reports are being generated and VAT which has to be paid to the Tax authorities is being calculated

• When the VAT returns are ready, you will be informed about this via e-mail and the VAT return will be made available to you in your hellotax software account. Please see this video in order to know how to use the VAT return portal.

In order to insure, that our software can calculate the VAT correctly, please make sure: 

1. That your account is connected to your Amazon store (for Amazon sellers). Here an instruction video.

2. That you upload your sales data by the deadline via the Manual Order Upload (for non-Amazon sellers). Here the related articles. 

3. That the available VAT IDs are entered correctly into the system.

4. That there are no errors in your software, which might lead to errors in the report. For this please watch the Daily software check up video.
