For an overview of the functionality, view the following TechTalk session from September 29, 2021: VAT Reporting for Multiple Tax Registrations in Single Legal Entity.

Prerequisites

Before you begin, the following prerequisites must be configured:

Enable features in feature management

  1. Go to Workspaces > Feature management.

  2. In the feature list, select and enable the following features:

    • Intrastat reporting for multiple VAT registrations
    • EU Sales list reporting for multiple VAT registrations
    • EU sales list transfer based on tax transactions only
    • Sales tax declaration for multiple VAT registrations

Note

If you transfer between warehouses in different countries/regions that have a tax registration, you must also enable the Tax in transfer order feature and configure the Tax Calculation service for tax in transfer orders. For more information, see Tax feature support for transfer orders.

  1. Go to Tax > Setup > Tax configuration > Tax calculation parameters.
  2. On the General tab, set Enable tax service to Yes.
  3. On the Multiple VAT registrations tab, set VAT declaration, EU Sales List, and Intrastat to Yes to activate VAT reporting, EU sales list reporting, or Intrastat reporting respectively, for the selected legal entity.

Note

Only country/region-specific functionality that's applicable to the country/region of the primary address of the selected legal entity is available. Formats for the VAT declaration, EU sales list, and Intrastat are available for countries/regions of other VAT registrations. Other country/region-specific functionality that's applicable to the countries/regions of other VAT registrations isn't available in this legal entity.

Set up country/region properties for multiple VAT registrations

  1. Go to Tax > Set up > Foreign trade > Foreign trade parameters.

  2. On the Country/region properties tab, set up the following country/region types: EU, EFTA, or Third country/region.

    The following information applies to documents about movements of goods between European Union (EU) countries/regions, except movements within the same country/region (for example from Belgium to Belgium):

    • By default, the list code is EU trade, and it's transferred to the EU sales list.
    • Documents are transferred to Intrastat.

Note

If the country/region of the legal entity's primary address is an EU member state, it must be set as an EU (not Domestic) country type on the Country/region properties tab.

  1. Go to Tax > Set up > Foreign trade > Foreign trade parameters.

  2. On the Intrastat tab, on the Electronic reporting for countries/regions FastTab, select the Intrastat reporting format for each country/region of your tax registration.
