- The Dutch government has submitted a bill to implement part of the European VIDA proposal, specifically to prevent double VAT registrations within the EU.
- The bill aims to reduce administrative burdens from multiple VAT registrations by introducing three main changes.
- The Union scheme will be expanded (from July 1, 2028, with some parts from January 1, 2027) to cover more cross-border supplies to consumers, reducing the need for foreign VAT registrations.
- A new transfer scheme will allow businesses to centrally declare the movement of their own goods within the EU, further minimizing foreign VAT registrations.
- A mandatory reverse charge mechanism will be introduced from July 1, 2028, for supplies by foreign businesses without local VAT registration to VAT-registered recipients.
