Some answers to my questions to Crossborderit
We are UK merchants selling on Shopify.
We sell to the EU, but they all have different VAT charges. Is there anything you have integrated with Shopify for this purpose? -Shopify has a calculator that can be used, or you can simply get a spreadsheet and calculate from there.
Is that charge £1 or 1 Euro per item posted to the EU. We charge one EURO per IOSS shipment we also provide DDP solutions for above 150€ but for the sake of this just 1€ per shipment into the EU we don’t have anything to do with your other shipments.
Do we have to provide monthly reports based on EU sales? The 19.99€ a month is for access to our system which will have all reporting. This fee also is for your compliance filing with the tax authorities.
Do we get to use your IOSS number? You will get a VAT number of your own that is files under ours and an intermediary.
Do you act as intermediary and file and pay the VAT owed This is what we do. We do all payments and compliance in real time.
How long does it take for it all to be set up and where on my shopify admin would I need to make changes?
