Amazon Pan-EU
Selling via Amazon’s Pan-European FBA service can give you continued access to European customers but it’s vital that you comply with the VAT obligations that come with it.
When to register for VAT?
When selling through Amazon Pan-EU, you will need to register for VAT. Knowing when to register isn’t straight forward so we’ve listed the most common reasons below. If you’re unsure whether you need to register, talk to a member of our team.
