Service
Tax for e-commerce and Amazon sellers
We handle the tax affairs of companies and self-employed sellers trading online in Spain and across several EU countries: multi-country VAT, marketplaces and books kept up to date. Remotely, across the whole of Spain.
Who it is for
If you sell online, your tax position is not that of a local business.
Selling on marketplaces and across several countries changes the rules: VAT is no longer declared in one place, obligations appear in other Member States, and the figures stop coming from your bank statement and start coming from platform reports. Most of the problems we see are not calculation errors — they come from a setup that was wrong from the start.
- Companies and self-employed sellers with their own store (Shopify, WooCommerce) or selling on marketplaces
- Amazon sellers shipping to several EU countries or holding stock in more than one
- Businesses already on One-Stop Shop or with VAT registrations outside Spain that need putting in order
- Projects starting to sell abroad that want it set up properly from the first shipment
What it covers
Everything an online seller has to comply with, in one place.
From multi-country VAT to the bookkeeping behind every platform settlement, with a named lead adviser.
Multi-country e-commerce VAT (OSS and Form 369)
Analysis of whether the One-Stop Shop suits you or applies to you, registration under the scheme, and periodic filing of Form 369 with the correct split by country and VAT rate.
Intra-EU transactions (ROI and Form 349)
Registration in the Spanish Register of Intra-Community Operators and validation of your VAT number in VIES, plus the recapitulative return covering purchases, sales and transfers of your own stock between countries.
Amazon VAT reports and bookkeeping reconciliation
We interpret the VAT and transaction reports Amazon makes available to sellers and reconcile them against your accounts before anything is filed, rather than declaring on unchecked data.
Marketplace bookkeeping
Correct recording of commissions, fulfilment fees, returns, refunds and Amazon and Shopify settlements, so your accounts reflect the real margin and not just the net amount landing in the bank.
Obligations in other EU countries and coordination
We determine where local VAT registration is required, when a permanent establishment may arise and what belongs to each jurisdiction, coordinating with local advisers where needed.
General taxation for online sellers
Corporate income tax, personal income tax, withholdings, invoicing requirements and adapting to verifiable invoicing systems (Verifactu). The day-to-day tax work, handled by the same team.
How we work
Remotely, across the whole of Spain.
This service is delivered entirely remotely to clients anywhere in Spain. Documents and reports are exchanged digitally, meetings are held by video call, and there is a named person on the other side. Our office is in Elche (Alicante), but for e-commerce tax work you do not need to be nearby.
This is not theory. The team routinely handles the real tax affairs of multi-country e-commerce businesses: Amazon sales across five countries, One-Stop Shop, intra-Community transactions and a permanent establishment in Italy. We know which report each platform produces, what it says, and exactly where the figures tend to stop adding up.
We are also the firm that reviews the tax logic behind Qualiax Fiscal, the tax and analytics software for Amazon and Shopify sellers.
- Delivered remotely across the whole of Spain

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
- Do I need to register for the One-Stop Shop (OSS)?
- The OSS lets you declare in Spain, in a single return, the VAT on distance sales to final consumers in other EU countries. Once the common EU-wide threshold is exceeded, VAT must be paid in the consumer’s country; the OSS is the scheme that allows you to do this from Spain in a single return, instead of registering country by country. It does not cover stock held outside Spain: if your goods are stored in another country, a local VAT registration is usually needed as well. It is worth reviewing your case before registering, as it determines how you invoice from that point on.
- How do I declare VAT on my Amazon sales?
- It depends on where the stock is and who the buyer is. Sales to consumers in other EU countries shipped from Spain are normally declared through the One-Stop Shop; sales within Spain go on Form 303; and movements of your own goods between Amazon warehouses in different countries are intra-Community transfers that must be reported and usually trigger a registration obligation in the destination country. The starting point is the VAT reports Amazon makes available to sellers, which we reconcile against the accounts before filing.
- What is Form 369?
- It is the return used in Spain to declare VAT due to other Member States under the One-Stop Shop schemes. It is filed separately from Form 303: Form 303 still covers activity subject to Spanish VAT, while Form 369 allocates what belongs to each country at its own rate. The most common mistake is duplicating or omitting transactions by not drawing a clear line between the two.
- When do I have to register for VAT in another EU country?
- The most frequent trigger is holding stock in that country — typical in Amazon’s pan-European logistics programmes — because local sales dispatched from that warehouse fall outside the One-Stop Shop. It may also be required by certain operations carried out there or by having a permanent establishment. We analyse where your goods actually are and what obligations that creates, before enquiries arrive.
- What are the ROI and Form 349, and when do they affect me?
- The ROI (Register of Intra-Community Operators) is the registration that makes your Spanish VAT number valid in the EU-wide VIES database; without it, intra-Community suppliers and customers cannot deal with you free of VAT. Form 349 is the recapitulative return reporting those transactions, including transfers of your own stock to warehouses in other countries. If you sell on Amazon with logistics in more than one country, both normally apply to you.
- Do you work with sellers based outside Elche or Alicante?
- Yes. E-commerce tax work is delivered remotely across the whole of Spain: documents and reports are exchanged digitally and meetings are held by video call, with a named lead adviser. Our office is in Elche (Alicante), but for this service the client’s location makes no difference.
