OSS (One Stop Shop) Application

Declare Tax Across the European Union Easily from a Single Location.

When selling directly to consumers across Europe, the days of dealing with each country's tax office separately are over. We complete your One Stop Shop (OSS) application in full, enabling you to manage VAT on e-commerce sales to 27 EU countries through a single return from your company's home jurisdiction.

What Is the OSS (One Stop Shop) System?

Introduced by the European Union, OSS (One Stop Shop) is a digital tax system that simplifies VAT obligations on distance sales to end consumers (B2C) across Europe for non-EU sellers and EU-established companies, such as your Dutch B.V.

Without OSS, you must monitor local VAT thresholds in every EU country where you sell and, when required, follow separate procedures with each tax authority. OSS removes this complexity by allowing you to declare tax on products shipped to different European countries through one platform.

The Benefits of OSS Registration

Building your e-commerce operation around OSS gives your company financial flexibility and significant operational speed:

1. No Need for Separate Tax Registration in 27 Countries

France, Italy, Spain, Sweden or Poland: whichever EU country your end customer is in, you do not need to obtain a local VAT number there. A single tax identity covers all of Europe.

2. Maximum Time Savings with a Single Return

Avoid tracking different tax calendars, return forms in different languages and local regulations. Submit one electronic return every quarter through your company's country of registration, such as the Netherlands, and pay the tax on all your European sales at once.

3. Significant Reductions in Bureaucracy and Accounting Costs

You do not need separate local tax advisers, country-specific service fees or official correspondence in foreign languages. Keep accounting and operational costs to a minimum and focus directly on growing sales.

4. Legal Assurance on Amazon and Other Marketplaces

Amazon Europe closely monitors sellers' compliance with EU tax regulations. Once your OSS registration is integrated into your marketplace account, VAT deductions on sales through the system work automatically and seamlessly, fully protecting your store from financial blocks.

How Does the Process Work?

We coordinate OSS application and integration with your company formation and tax registration steps:

  1. Company and Tax Infrastructure Review: Preparing your Dutch B.V. and primary local VAT number for the OSS application.
  2. Official OSS Portal Registration: Submitting the official One Stop Shop application through the tax authority systems of the country where your company operates.
  3. E-Commerce and Marketplace Integration: Correctly adding your approved OSS profile to your Amazon seller account and website tax settings.
  4. Periodic Reporting Support: Analysing your sales data to prepare accurate quarterly OSS returns.
