How the service runs

Everything handled. Everything visible.

The same four things happen every month, in every country you are registered in.

01
The outcome

Your VAT obligation is met

Every period, in every country you are registered in, the return is prepared and filed on time.

02
Who does the work

A licensed tax advisor

A licensed German tax advisor reviews and submits your German returns. The same team prepares and files your French returns.

03
Your part

Confirm your figures

Copy last month, upload your sales report, or type the figures in. Minutes, not hours. You confirm them; we do not invent them.

04
The dashboard

Your window into it

Registration progress, every return, every tax office letter in plain English, and what you paid. One login for both countries.

You confirm your own figures each period. We prepare the return from what you confirm, a licensed German tax advisor reviews and submits it, and the filing receipt lands in your dashboard.

Who does the work

An in-house team, licensed on both sides of the border.

Your returns are prepared, reviewed and submitted by the tax firm itself, not routed to a subcontractor you will never meet. Letters get read in German and in French, and answered. You get everything in English.

That is the whole idea: the depth of a traditional tax firm, reachable in your language, across two countries.

The team was always responsive, answered my questions clearly, and provided excellent support throughout the process. Their platform is intuitive and easy to navigate.

The dashboard

The window into the service, not the service.

One English login for both countries. Registration progress, every return and its receipt, every tax office letter summarised in plain English, and every deadline before it opens. Confirming your figures happens here too: upload your sales report or type them in, then we prepare, review and file.

Storing stock in both countries through Pan-EU fulfilment? Both registrations live side by side: two filing calendars, one team, one invoice.

See how we work

Three tools, open to anyone.

No signup for any of them. They exist because the fastest way to trust a tax firm is to watch it answer a question precisely.

Tool 01 · The country check

Where do you owe VAT? Two answers get you started.

1. Where is your stock stored?
2. Cross-border B2C sales above €10,000 a year?
What that means

Answer the two questions and this panel tells you which registrations follow, in plain words. The full check goes deeper; this is the two-minute version.

Tool 02 · The letter reader

A scary tax letter, read into plain English.

Photograph a letter from the tax office and you get the letter type, an English translation, and every deadline it names. No signup. If it needs a response, we quote a fixed price, from €200 net, within 24 hours on weekdays. You pay nothing until you accept the quote.

Letter type Deadlines, verified English translation

Tool 03 · The VAT calculator

German VAT, gross to net, without a spreadsheet.

Enter a price and the calculator splits out the VAT share at the German rates, in both directions. Useful for pricing decisions and for checking an invoice that looks off. No account needed.

I contacted them regarding an urgent VAT filing issue. They solved my problem very quickly. They handled what my previous accounting company should have taken care of. … They provide fast and clear communication, along with a transparent and user-friendly dashboard that makes managing everything much easier.

Zoltan · Hungary, Vaytax customer
5-star review on Trustpilot →

… Auch das Pricing ist sehr fair, transparent und gut nachvollziehbar. Für EU-Unternehmen, die in Deutschland umsatzsteuerpflichtig sind und eine zuverlässige Betreuung suchen, ist Vaytax aus meiner Sicht eine wirklich sehr gute Wahl.

In English
The pricing is very fair, transparent and easy to follow. For EU companies with a German VAT obligation who want reliable support, Vaytax is in my view a really good choice.

Choose your country

Two countries. One service, delivered the same way in both.

Each country has its own registration, its own monthly form, and its own tax office. What does not change is who runs it and what your part is. Everything else, including pricing and timelines, lives on the country pages.
