What changed

Now that VAT Services on Amazon has ended

Amazon discontinued its built-in VAT Services on Amazon programme, the subscription that handled VAT registration and filing “in the background” for EU and UK sellers. With that service gone, the responsibility falls back on you.

If you relied on it, this is what it means:

You now need your own VAT provider to keep registrations and filings current in every country where you owe VAT.
Nothing about your obligations changed, only who handles them. You still need to be registered where your stock sits and where you cross thresholds, and you still need to file on time.
Gaps are the real risk. A lapse between Amazon’s old service ending and your new setup starting is exactly where penalties and account issues appear.

We move you off the old programme cleanly, review where you are (and should be) registered, and take over filing so nothing slips.

Amazon VAT compliance

Why VAT compliance matters for Amazon sellers

Rising regulatory pressure

Across the EU, UK and US, marketplaces are increasingly liable for third-party tax errors, so Amazon audits seller accounts more aggressively than ever.

The business risk of non-compliance

Getting it wrong can mean account suspensions, payment holds and fines exceeding EUR 50,000. For a seller, a frozen account is an existential problem, not a paperwork problem.

What sellers want

The goals we hear most often: keep uninterrupted access to every marketplace you sell on, expand into new regions without registration delays holding up launch, and free your internal team from tax admin so they can focus on growth.

Amazon VAT questions, answered

Do I need to register for VAT to sell on Amazon?

In most cases, yes. You generally need to be VAT registered where your stock is stored and where you cross a country’s registration threshold. Because Amazon moves stock across fulfilment centres in multiple countries, sellers often trigger obligations in several jurisdictions at once. We map exactly where you need to register.

Now that VAT Services on Amazon has ended, what should I do?

You need a dedicated VAT provider to take over the registrations and filings Amazon’s programme used to handle. The priority is avoiding a gap: keep every existing registration current, confirm where you should be registered, and make sure no filing deadline is missed during the switch. We handle the transition end to end.

Can I have more than one Amazon seller account?

Amazon allows multiple seller accounts only under specific conditions and with a legitimate business need. Each account still carries its own VAT obligations. We help you keep compliance clean across every account you operate.

Can I supply digital products via the Amazon marketplace?

Yes, and digital products carry their own VAT rules, often taxed where your customer is located rather than where you are based. We make sure the right VAT treatment is applied to your digital sales.

What if I am already using another tax provider?

Switching is straightforward. We review your current registrations and filings, identify any gaps, and take over without disrupting your compliance. Many sellers move to us precisely because they have outgrown a provider that only covers one or two countries.

In which countries do I need to be VAT registered as an Amazon seller?

It depends on where your stock is held and where your sales cross local thresholds. Sellers using pan-European fulfilment typically need registrations in several countries, while OSS can simplify some cross-border B2C reporting. We assess your setup and tell you exactly where you owe VAT.
