AmCham EU is in favour of a proposal to align VAT and customs legislations to provide certainty for relevant authorities and eliminate confusion for operators over liability.
An IOSS model that works by including an end-to-end green lane status would simplify the registration process for all operators.
Recommendations:
- Centralise procedures through a single European Customs Agency where economic operators can file their customs declarations in order to streamline free movement of goods.
- Effectively implement the VAT e-commerce package in a harmonised manner
