What we do for you in France
Returns
We prepare and file all your French VAT returns. We work from your actual sales on each marketplace, not from estimates.
Letters from the French tax authorities
Letters arrive in French. We tell you clearly what is being asked, draft the reply and send it on your behalf.
Working with Amazon
We show you where to register your French VAT number in Seller Central. If Amazon asks you for information about your French VAT, we prepare it with you.
Who it is for
For Spanish online sellers who store goods in France or sell to French customers. They are usually Amazon sellers with stock in French warehouses, or who sell on amazon.fr and other marketplaces.
Your French VAT is managed together with your other countries through our accountancy firm (gestoría) service for Amazon and European sellers. A single relationship with the firm for all your countries.

Frequently asked questions
How do we get started?
Write to us through the contact page with a short description of your activity in France. We review your case and send you a fixed quote. Once you accept it, we prepare the registration application.
What documents do you need?
In general, your company details, its company or self-employed documents and an authorisation to act on your behalf. For the returns, access to your sales reports from each marketplace. We send you the exact list when we start.
Can you take over my existing French VAT number from my current accountant?
Yes. If you already have a French VAT number, we carry on with it. We ask your current accountant for what has been filed so far, review it and continue from that point. If we find anything outstanding, we explain it to you before acting.
Is there a minimum term?
No. There is no minimum-term contract, and if you leave you take your data and your returns with you.
