Fiscal representation
| VAT (Value Added Tax) applies to all commercial activities involved in the production and distribution of goods and the provision of services. This tax is paid by the final consumer, but companies have to pay and then retrieve it. At the end, what has been paid to the Tax Office, is paid back by all the final users, or, in certain cases, by the Tax Office itself. In short, every company that sells in the European Union has: |
| 1) To pay the VAT at the import |
| 2) To charge back the VAT on their invoices to European customers |
| 3) To claim back the VAT if goods have been sold without having charged back the VAT (goods sold outside of France with a French import, for example) |
| Here is where ITS Fabry can help you: without a European VAT number, it is impossible for Chinese companies to distribute themselves their products in Europe. That is why we have developed a related service since 1995, the very beginning of the opening of the European frontiers: fiscal representation. |
