Set up Intrastat reporting

All companies in the European Union (EU) must report their trade with other EU countries/regions. Companies must report the movement of goods to the statistics authorities in their country/region every month, and the report must be delivered to the tax authorities. Intrastat is the system that's used to collect trade statistics about goods within these countries/regions. Use the Intrastat report to complete periodic Intrastat reporting by collecting, recording, and reporting the trade of goods according to local legislation.

Intrastat reporting is based on basic EU regulations that apply to all countries/regions. However, there are differences within the individual countries/regions. Each country/region has its rules about what and how to report.

Note

Intrastat information doesn't apply to the movement of services between countries/regions, but only goods (Items and Fixed Assets). If the local government requires registering the movement of services between countries/regions, it can be done using the Service Declaration feature.

This features is available as an app at AppSource. ATo use this feature, you must first install it on the Extension Management page. Learn more about this functionality here.

Important

This article describes the new Intrastat experience available in Business Central starting in the 2022 release wave 2, which includes extended features. If you haven't upgraded your solution, read the previous version's Intrastat setup and usage article at Set Up and Report Intrastat.

Assisted setup

To use assisted setup for the Intrastat, follow these steps:

  1. Select the icon, enter Assisted Setup, and then select the related link.

  2. On the Assisted Setup page, select the line for Set up Intrastat reporting in the Report on financial health group.

  3. Follow the instructions for the basic setup for Intrastat. To read more about the Intrastat setup, see the Intrastat configuration section later in this article.

  4. After the setup is completed, select Finish to start to use the new Intrastat experience.

    Note

    Intrastat Reporting Core app can be installed on any base app, regardless of whether it is the EU or not, but this feature is intended for regulatory reporting in EU countries, Microsoft provides full regulatory and localization support only in EU countries. If you're in EU countries where Microsoft does'nt provide localization support, you must find partner-based localization support, and for other countries you can use without support. You might have to install a country/region-specific Intrastat app in addition to the core extension to meet the local requirements. The country-specific apps can only be installed on base apps as they are intednded for localization purposes, unlike Intrastat, which has one core app and local apps (the country-specific ones).

Intrastat configuration

Before you can use Intrastat reports, there are several configurations that must be set up.

Intrastat reporting setup

Use the Intrastat Reporting Setup page to enable and set the default behavior for Intrastat reporting. You can specify whether you need to report Intrastat from shipments (dispatches), receipts (arrivals), or both, depending on thresholds that are set by your local regulations. You can also set default transaction types for the regular and return documents that are used for transaction reporting.

Follow the steps to set up Intrastat reporting.

(Conversely, when an exact value is entered in the Transformation Rule field in the Data Exch. Field Mapping Buf. table, a value is chosen in this field.)
  9. If you need to group entries based on some columns, on the Field Grouping FastTab, select the fields that you want to use for grouping.

Note

Dynamics 365 Business Central comes with the preconfigured data exchange definition for Intrastat for all localized countries/regions. To learn more about how to create a new data exchange definition, see Set Up Data Exchange Definitions.

Set mandatory fields with the Intrastat report checklist

In some countries/regions, the authorities require that Intrastat reports include, for example, the shipment method for purchases or other values when sales are over a certain threshold.

To set mandatory fields or values on the Intrastat Report page, follow the steps.

  1. Select the Lightbulb that opens the Tell Me feature. icon, enter Intrastat Report Setup, and then select the related link.
  2. Select Intrastat Report Checklist.
  3. Follow the steps to add the necessary lines for checking:
    1. Set the Field No. field to a field that must be checked for a non-empty value.

    2. Enter a value in the Filter Expression field if needed, based on the following rules:

      1. When you open the Filter Page, select the filter that you need to use for checking.
      2. Select a value that's related to the selected filter.
      3. If you must fill more filters for the chosen field, repeat the previous two steps to add another filter.
      4. When you've finished entering the filters for the chosen field, select OK.
    3. Select the Reversed Filter Expression checkbox to specify that the check for fields is run only on those lines that don't match the filter expression. If the line isn't filtered, this field is ignored.

Note

When you open the Filter Page from the Filter Expression line, you can use all standard filter expressions related to the specific field you want to filter.

Be careful when you set up validation rules, because they can differ between countries/regions.

Use custom codeunits in Intrastat reporting

If you want to change how Intrastat works, and the default configuration isn't enough, you can customize the system by extending the standard features. If you need to further change the Intrastat behavior, you can develop your own codeunits. When you create codeunits, you need to make additional changes to use them. To configure the system to use your own objects, follow the steps.

  1. Select the Lightbulb that opens the Tell Me feature. icon, enter VAT Reports Configuration, and then select the related link.
  2. On the VAT Reports Configuration page, add a new line.
  3. In the VAT Report Type field, select Intrastat Report.
  4. In the VAT Report Version field, specify the version of the report.
  5. Add your codeunits for the following options:
    1. In the Suggest Lines Codeunit ID field, specify the new codeunit for suggesting lines in the Intrastat report lines.
    2. In the Content Codeunit ID field, specify the new codeunit for exporting data as a file using a Data Exchange Definition.
    3. In the Validate Codeunit ID field, specify the new codeunits for validating results inside Intrastat report lines.

Important

This line must be empty if you use the standard codeunits. You should only create a line and configure it if you have developed custom codeunits.

Other Intrastat configurations

Customer and vendor cards include the Intrastat Partner Type field, which has the same option values as the Partner Type field:

  • "" (blank)
  • Company
  • Person

The Intrastat Partner Type field replaced the Partner Type field in Intrastat reporting. The Partner Type field is used in the Single Euro Payments Area (SEPA) to define the SEPA Direct Debit Scheme (Core or B2B). The Intrastat Partner Type field is used for Intrastat reporting only. Therefore, you can specify different values for the two fields if necessary.

If the Intrastat Partner Type field is left blank, the value from the Partner Type field is used for Intrastat reporting.

In addition to Intrastat Report Setup, Data Exchange Definitions, and Intrastat Report Checklist, the following settings must also be configured.

Page Description
Countries/Regions On the Countries/Regions page, add EU Country/Region Code and Intrastat Code information to specify a code for the country/region that you're trading with. This information will be used in Intrastat reporting.
Tariff Numbers In many countries/regions, the customs and tax authorities establish eight-digit codes for various items. To enable item entries to contain the necessary information when the program imports them to the Intrastat journal line, enter the item code on the Tariff Numbers page. Find the codes for the items that your company deals with, and enter them on the Tariff Numbers page.
Transport Methods There are seven one-digit codes for Intrastat transport methods: 1 for sea, 2 for rail, 3 for road, 4 for air, 5 for the post, 7 for fixed installations, and 9 for own propulsion (for example, transporting a car by driving it). Business Central doesn't require these specific codes. However, we recommend that the descriptions provide a similar meaning.
Transaction Types Countries and regions have different codes for types of Intrastat transactions, such as ordinary purchase and sale, exchange of returned goods, and exchange of non-returned goods. Set up all the codes that apply to your country/region. These codes are then used on the Foreign Trade FastTab on sales and purchase documents and when you process returns.
Transaction Specifications Set up codes to supplement the transaction type descriptions.

Note

Starting in January 2022, Intrastat requires different transaction nature codes for dispatches to private individuals or non-VAT registered businesses and VAT-registered businesses. To comply with this requirement, we recommend that you review or add new transaction nature codes on the Transaction Types page, according to the requirements in your country. You should also check and update the Intrastat Partner Type field to Person for a private individual or non-VAT registered business customers on the relevant Customer page. If you're unsure about the correct Intrastat partner type or transaction type to use, we recommend that you ask an expert in your country or region.

Field Description
Net Weight Weight is one of the basic configurations that are related to Intrastat reporting, because the total weight is mandatory for reporting. To be ready for this requirement, enter a value in the Net Weight field on the item or fixed asset card.
Country of Origin Code Use the two-letter ISO Alpha Codes on the item or fixed asset card for the country/region where the good was obtained or produced. If the good was produced in more than one country/region, the country/region of origin is the last country/region where it was significantly processed.
VAT identification number of the partner operator in the Member State of import This is the VAT-ID number of the partner operator in the Member State of import. The VAT-ID is also used in the exchange of intra-EU-export data among the Member States and allows the Member States to allocate the received data to the importing company in their own country/region. Reporting units must report on the VAT-ID of the company that declared the intra-Union acquisition of goods in the Member State of import.

Optionally, you can also set up:

  • Commodity codes: Customs and tax authorities have established numerical codes that classify items and services. You can specify these codes on items.
  • Areas: Supplementary information about countries and regions.
  • Entry/exit points: Specify the locations where you ship or receive items to or from other countries/regions. An airport is an example of an entry or exit point. You enter entry or exit points on sales and purchase documents on the Foreign Trade FastTab. This information is copied from the item entries when you create the Intrastat journal.
  • Supplementary unit of measure: The quantity of goods for Intrastat reporting can be either net weight (in kilograms) or a supplementary unit. If supplementary units are required, you must configure them for items and fixed assets.

    Conversion Factor Specifies the conversion factor for the tariff number.
    Unit of Measure Specifies the unit of measure for the tariff number.

Note

If you add a supplementary unit of measure, Business Central asks whether you want to update related items. If you choose to update related items, the Unit of Measure value on the Item Units of Measure page is updated for all items that have the same tariff number.

When you add a tariff number that has a defined Unit of Measure value to the item, Business Central automatically adds a new unit of measure to the Item Units of Measure value for the item. The Qty. per Unit of Measure value is based on the Quantity Rounding Precision field.

Automate the process of inheriting the Country of Origin for Items

Note

If the user wants to use the Country of Origin inheritance from the purchase document to the sales invoice, this is only possible using Item Tracking Lines. Otherwise, the system won't use the default value.

How to set up

Intrastat report

  1. Select the Lightbulb that opens the Tell Me feature. icon, enter Intrastat Report Setup, and then select the related link.
  2. In the Intrastat Report Setup in the Default Country Code for Item Tracking field, choose the Purchase Headers option.

  1. Select the Lightbulb that opens the Tell Me feature. icon, enter Item, and then select the related link.
  2. Choose the item that you want to configure.
  3. On the Item Card page, on the Item Tracking FastTab, select one of item tracking codes using the Item Tracking Code field.
  4. When selecting, you can see how item tracking codes are configured.
  5. Select the one you want and select OK.

Use the Item in any of the Purchase documents

Once you select the item that has an Item Tracking Code enabled in the purchase line, you must follow the steps.

  1. Om the Lines FastTab, choose Line, and run the Item Tracking Lines action.
  2. On the Item Tracking Lines page after adding Serial No. or Lot No., and entering value in Quantity (Base) field, choose one of the following options:
    1. The Lot No. Information Card action if you're using lots.
    2. The Serial No. Information Card action if you're using serial numbers.
  3. You can choose New (+) to create new information card on the Lot No. Information Card or Serial No. Information Card page.
  4. The Country/Region Code will be populated with the Country/Region Code from your document Purchase Header.
  5. If you want to change Country/Region Code, you can do it manually.
  6. Close the page.
  7. Repeat this process for each line on the Item Tracking Lines page where you have configured item tracking.
  8. Close the Item Tracking Lines page.

When you work with Sales Invoice, Business Central automatically collects the Country/Region Code for any lot or serial number you may choose. You can always check the code using the Item Tracking Lines from the sales lines.

These Country/Region Codes are automatically populated in the Country/Region of Origin Code field in the Intrastat Report Lines.

Enter country/region Intrastat settings

Intrastat requirements are similar in all member states of the EU, though there are important exceptions. In theory, the rules should be uniformly applied in all member states. However, there are differences in implementations, because some member states provide guidelines about how to apply the principles in specific situations (for example, commercial samples and returns of goods). These guidelines can produce different results for various situations. Therefore, the information that countries/regions must enter can differ, as can the file format that they must use for reporting.

Note

If the user doesn't create the Lot No. Information Card or Serial No. Information Card for any specific lot or serial number, the system will not use the Country/Region Code from the purchase header, and instead, the system will use the Country/Region Code from the Item card.
