Intrastat Reporting Thresholds

Should you be filing Instrastat Reports?

What is an Intrastat Report?

Intrastat stands for ‘Intra-community statistics’ and is a mandatory report (once thresholds are exceeded) requested and used by the EU tax authorities to monitor the economic health of the EU countries. 

Each country has a separate Intrastat threshold for both ‘Arrivals’ and ‘Dispatches’ of goods between EU countries. 

These are the EU equivalent of ‘imports’ and ‘exports’ and they differ per country. 

Once a threshold is exceeded, you will be obliged to file reports usually on a monthly basis to the relevant country.
