Do you sell goods via Amazon? Do you use an Amazon FBA warehouse in the Czech Republic? Or is your stock simply stored or shipped from Czech territory? If so, you are required to register for VAT in the Czech Republic specifically as an e-commerce seller.
At YourTaxes.cz, we provide a tailor-made VAT registration service and ongoing reporting for Amazon sellers, ensuring your account remains compliant with both Czech law and Amazon's strict policies.
Many sellers mistakenly believe that the OSS (One-Stop-Shop) scheme replaces local registration. However, storing goods in a Czech warehouse (FBA) triggers an immediate VAT registration obligation with no turnover threshold. This is required to report internal stock movements and local B2C sales.
| Fulfillment Type | VAT Registration in CZ |
|---|---|
| Amazon FBA (Stock in CZ) | Mandatory before the first sale |
| Amazon Merchant Fulfilled (from abroad) | Optional / OSS dependent |
| Other Marketplaces (Zalando, AboutYou) | Mandatory if stock is stored in CZ |
We understand that Amazon sellers deal with thousands of transactions. To ensure 100% accuracy, we prepare your Czech VAT returns by integrating with your existing e-commerce data or professional tax tools such as:
Our process is highly automated and flexible, allowing us to provide premium services at very competitive prices.
Beyond the initial VAT registration in the Czech Republic, we handle all recurring obligations:
Note for OSS users: Transactions declared in the Czech Republic before the registration to OSS or movements of goods between EU warehouses must still be reported via local Czech VAT returns.
Our extensive experience with cross-border e-commerce allows us to handle the entire process remotely. You simply send us your reports, and we take care of the rest via power of attorney.
We will provide you with a special list of required documents (e.g., Extract from the Trade Register, VAT certificate from your home country, your Amazon-Profile, eventually your first Amazon report). We handle the submission and follow-ups with the tax office.
While possible, the Czech Tax Office requires specific XML formats and communication via the Data Box system, which is extremely difficult for foreign entities without a local authorized agent.
