What we do for you in Germany
Returns
We prepare and file your German VAT returns, both periodic and annual. Each one is calculated from your actual sales data.
Letters from the German tax authorities
Letters arrive in German. We tell you clearly what is being asked, prepare the reply and submit it on your behalf.
Working with Amazon
We show you how to register your German VAT number in Seller Central. If Amazon asks you for information about your German VAT, we prepare it with you.
Who it is for
For Spanish online sellers, whether self-employed (autónomos) or companies, who store goods or sell in Germany. This is the usual situation for anyone using Amazon's Pan-European FBA programme or selling on amazon.de.
Your German VAT can be managed together with your other countries through our accountancy firm (gestoría) service for Amazon and European sellers. One point of contact for all of them.

Frequently asked questions
How do we get started?
Write to us through the contact page and tell us where you sell and where your stock is. We review your case and send you a fixed quote. If you accept it, we prepare the registration.
What documents will you ask me for?
Your company details, the company or self-employed documents we specify and the authorisations to act on your behalf. For the returns, access to your sales reports from Amazon and your other marketplaces. When we start, we give you the exact list.
Can you take over my existing German VAT number from my current accountant?
Yes. If you already have a German VAT number, we do not start from scratch. We ask your current accountant for the returns filed, check that they add up and carry on from there. If anything is outstanding, we tell you before changing anything.
Is there a minimum term?
No. There is no minimum-term contract. If you decide to leave one day, you take your data and your returns with you.
