Frequently asked questions
When do I need to register for sales tax or VAT?
In the US, once your sales into a state pass its economic nexus threshold, or as soon as you have a physical presence there. In the UK, UK businesses register once taxable turnover passes £90,000 in a rolling 12 months, while overseas sellers register from their first UK sale. GoodVat’s monitoring tells you which applies to you.
How much does registration cost?
Registration is carried out by our local accountants and priced per country, because the work differs from one authority to the next. You get a fixed quote before anything starts. It is separate from your GoodVat plan.
How long does registration take?
It varies by authority. Many US states issue permits within days; VAT registrations in the UK and EU can take several weeks, longer where a fiscal representative is needed. Your accountant gives you an estimate with the quote.
What is the difference between OSS and IOSS?
The One-Stop Shop (OSS) lets you report VAT on cross-border sales to EU consumers in one quarterly return instead of registering in each country. The Import One-Stop Shop (IOSS) covers goods imported into the EU in consignments worth up to €150, so VAT is charged at checkout instead of on delivery. Non-EU sellers need an EU intermediary for IOSS.
Can I register myself and still use GoodVat?
Yes. Add your existing registration numbers and GoodVat starts charging and reporting tax for them straight away.
