Question

Dear

How should I fill this in under expenses / costs? Because it states amount excluding vAT, amount including vAT …

Hello Yorgos,

Because you are subject to VAT, suppliers within the EU will issue you with an invoice with 0% VAT.

If you select an EU supplier in step 1 of the expenses, we will then show the next steps updated in the flow. This is particularly important in step 3) amounts. There, we question you to fill in the amount fields (i.e. excluding, including, etc.) as if you had received the invoice from a Belgian company.

So, for example, if you receive an invoice from

the previous answer was a little too quick :)

So, for example, if you receive an invoice from Amazon with a FR vAT number for the delivery of some materials and they charge 0% vAT and 100 euro excluding vAT. (0% is only allowed here because you are subject to VAT!)

Then you must process that invoice as follows:

100 euros in the category excluding 21% VAT

and 100 euros in the category including VAT. If you had received the same invoice from a Belgian supplier, you would also enter it in the category excluding 21% VAT.

If you make a mistake in the future and, for example, do the next:

100 euros in the category excluding 0% vAT

and 100 euros in the category including vAT.

Then, when you save, Dexxter will also give you a notification that you may have entered it incorrectly. This is because we can assume that you simply entered it in the exclusive 0% vAT category because the supplier charged 0% vAT. But that is not the correct method, as it will result in an 'error' in your vAT declaration. For the vAT declaration, you actually have to enter it as if it were a good on which 21% vAT was charged, but with the status of European supplier. Dexxter does all this for you if you enter the amount in the field excluding 21% vAT and then again in the field including vAT. (and amount excluding vAT = amount including vAT)
