What you get

Everything you need to stay VAT-compliant in Germany

We register you, file every return, and handle correspondence with the Finanzamt — so you can focus on selling.

Why Vaytax

Your Steuerberater, not a VAT software vendor.

Every return is prepared, reviewed, and signed by Michael Stiller — a licensed German Steuerberater. You get a named human, a DATEV filing, and a real signature. Not a chatbot and an API handoff.

vs the alternatives

The Steuerberater you can actually reach.

Traditional advisors know German tax law but hide behind German-only portals and phone lines. Software platforms give you English UX but subcontract the filing to strangers. Vaytax is both.

FAQ

Questions, answered.

No. You can be based anywhere in the world. For non-EU sellers (e.g. UK post-Brexit, US, China) we act as your German tax correspondent so all Finanzamt mail is handled by us, in Germany.

Those are software platforms that subcontract the actual filing to a Steuerberater you never meet. Vaytax IS the Steuerberater. You get a named, licensed tax advisor (Michael Stiller, FRADECO GmbH) who personally reviews and files every return via DATEV.

Typically 4–8 weeks from when we submit your Fragebogen zur steuerlichen Erfassung to the Finanzamt. You can start selling while the registration is pending — we backfile the period once your Steuernummer arrives.

Monthly UStVA filings via DATEV, the annual Jahreserklärung, EU ZM (Zusammenfassende Meldung), all routine Finanzamt correspondence, and a dashboard in English. Not included: incoming-invoice review, tax advisory, and legal advice — those are Steuerberatung auf Anfrage and billed at €200/hr.

Yes. If your EU-wide distance sales exceed €10,000/year we set you up with OSS in your home country and file your German returns alongside. Note: OSS does not replace German VAT registration if you store stock in German FBA warehouses.

Yes. Notice runs to the end of the following month. We file any return whose period falls within your active subscription, then close your account and deregister you with the Finanzamt if requested.
