Who needs this

Vaytax is built for foreign companies with a German VAT obligation — not for German-resident businesses.

📦

Amazon FBA sellers

Storing inventory in a German fulfilment centre (FBA DE or Pan-EU with DE enabled) triggers immediate VAT registration — no threshold.

🛒

E-commerce sellers shipping to Germany

Sales to German consumers above the €10,000 EU-wide distance-selling threshold require local VAT registration or OSS.

💻

SaaS & digital services

B2C digital services to German customers outside the OSS scheme, or services with a German permanent establishment.

🏢

Foreign entities with German operations

UK Ltd., US LLC, or EU companies with a Betriebsstätte (permanent establishment) or employees in Germany.

Frequently asked questions

Who needs to register for German VAT?

Any foreign company with a taxable activity in Germany: Amazon FBA storage, e-commerce sales above €10,000/year to German consumers, digital services to German B2C customers outside OSS, or a permanent establishment in Germany. No turnover threshold applies for non-resident companies.

How long does registration take?

6–10 weeks for the Steuernummer, plus 2–4 weeks for the USt-IdNr. Most delays come from incomplete paperwork — we handle every document to avoid rejection.

Do I need a fiscal representative?

No. Germany does not require fiscal representation for EU or non-EU companies. A licensed Steuerberater is sufficient — and included in your monthly fee.

What's included in the €499 registration fee?

The Fragebogen zur steuerlichen Erfassung, Steuernummer application, USt-IdNr. application, SEPA setup, Dauerfristverlängerung, and all Finanzamt correspondence during registration. Monthly filing is €79 separately.

Do I need to speak German?

No. Everything you see is in English — the dashboard, contracts, support. We handle the German-language Finanzamt correspondence for you.

What documents do I need to provide?

Company incorporation certificate (apostilled if non-EU), business address, director passport copies, description of your German activity, IBAN, and a signed power of attorney. We generate the Vollmacht and Mandatsvereinbarung during sign-up.
