VAT Refund Electronic Procedure

An eLearning course on the VAT refund electronic procedure is available for download to both economic operators and tax officials.

Who is concerned by the VAT Refund electronic procedure?

Since 1st January 2010, the procedure for reimbursement of VAT incurred by EU taxable persons in Member States where they are not established has been replaced by a fully electronic procedure, thereby ensuring a quicker refund to claimants.
The new procedure makes life easier for taxable persons and improves the functioning of the internal market. It also changes the way tax authorities and economic operators work and collaborate.
