- The EPRS briefing reviews the evolution and future of the EU’s VAT one-stop-shop (OSS), highlighting its near-complete coverage after the 2025 VIDA package.

- Future reforms under discussion include integrating foreign VAT refund mechanisms, improving VAT rate identification, and possibly expanding OSS to B2B transactions.
