- The Swedish Tax Agency has released a statement (No. 8-2418494) clarifying the rules for establishing a fixed establishment for sellers who transfer goods to call-off warehouses in Sweden.
- The statement outlines that for simplification rules to apply, the seller must not have a registered office or fixed establishment in the EU country where the goods are transported.
- The Tax Agency considers a warehouse owned or rented by the seller, operated directly by the seller or through hired staff or another company on the seller’s behalf, to constitute a permanent establishment.
- However, a warehouse not owned or rented by the seller and operated directly or indirectly by someone else is not considered a permanent establishment.
- This statement replaces the previous position statement and aligns with the VAT Committee’s guidelines and the amended sections of the new VAT Act, taking effect from July 1, 2023.
