What the rule requires

The platforms can calculate destination VAT rates at checkout, which covers the charging side. The filing side, the quarterly OSS return, sits in accounting software or with a tax adviser. Sellers outside the EU need an intermediary to use IOSS.

Who it binds: Any seller with more than €10,000 a year of cross-border B2C sales inside the EU must charge the VAT rate of the buyer's country and can file it all through the One Stop Shop. Sellers importing consignments up to €150 to EU consumers can use the Import One Stop Shop to charge VAT at checkout instead of at the border.
