Frequently Asked Questions
Is HelloTax really free?
Yes, the core platform is free to use for OSS filing and EU VAT compliance for Amazon FBA sellers. However, some ancillary services like VAT registration in certain countries may involve government fees or third-party costs that are not included.
Can I use HelloTax if my business is not based in the Netherlands?
Yes, HelloTax is designed for EU e-commerce sellers and supports sellers across the EU, even if they are not registered in the Netherlands. It uses the Dutch OSS regime and your own local VAT, so non-Dutch EU businesses can also benefit.
Does HelloTax handle VAT for Amazon FBA specifically?
Yes, HelloTax is built specifically for Amazon FBA sellers. It calculates the VAT obligations that arise from FBA inventory placed in EU fulfillment centers and handles the corresponding OSS filings.
Which EU countries does HelloTax cover?
HelloTax covers all 27 EU member states through the One-Stop-Shop (OSS) mechanism. This means you can file one VAT return for cross-border sales to all EU countries.
Does HelloTax file my VAT registration applications for every EU country?
HelloTax helps with VAT registration in EU countries when needed, especially for FBA stock storage. However, some countries may require a fiscal representative or charge registration fees, which may not be included in the free platform.
Can HelloTax replace my VAT accountant?
HelloTax automates OSS filing and compliance calculations, so for straightforward Amazon FBA sellers it can replace a lot of manual work. But for complex situations like missing trader fraud, customs issues, or non-EU VAT refunds, you should still consult a professional.
