- Slovakia will introduce a phased reverse charge mechanism for import VAT starting on July 1, 2025, allowing eligible taxpayers to self-assess VAT on imports via their VAT return, improving cash flow by enabling simultaneous declaration and deduction.
- The first phase, effective July 1, 2025, is limited to established Slovak taxpayers who meet specific criteria, including holding a Slovak VAT ID and a valid Authorized Economic Operator (AEO) license, with the mechanism applying only to VAT liabilities arising after June 30, 2025.
- The second phase, beginning January 1, 2026, expands eligibility to EU-based VAT payers registered for Slovak VAT, continuing to require compliance with the same conditions as the first phase, and applying to all import VAT liabilities from that date onward.
