Seeking reliable IOSS (Import One‑Stop Shop) intermediaries after current provider ceased service; shipments go from Korea/Japan to the EU. IOSS intermediaries handle EU VAT for non‑EU sellers.
Recent development: Eurora is no longer providing intermediary services; its intermediary license was canceled effective 01.11.2023. This may significantly affect Q4 peak sales; affected businesses should obtain a new IOSS number quickly.
Recommendations and resources:
EAS: Multiple endorsements; noted as working better than Crossborder IT with responsive support. OP plans to try EAS (www.easproject.com).
Status/outcome: No single consensus provider, but EAS and Lovat are cited positively. Clear next step is to consult the Estonian Tax Authority list and secure a replacement intermediary/new IOSS number promptly.
Notes: The shared links are central for selecting a compliant intermediary and obtaining a new IOSS number.

It seems that the IOSS intermediary I have been working with for some months has stopped providing the services. I had tried another one before but both the current and the one I used before were not really providing the top service. Can anyone help and share the experience. I deliver to Europe mostly from Korea and Japan. I would appreciate your help greatly .
As we are in Q4, the strongest sales period in e-commerce this can have a major impact on all affected companies.
Estonian Tax Authority shared the list of licensed IOSS intermediaries to all Eurora clients that have lost their IOSS number due to cancellation of Eurora’s intermediary license.
