- The EU’s €10,000 annual threshold determines whether Dutch businesses charge Dutch VAT (21%/9%) or the customer’s local VAT on cross-border B2C sales; above it, OSS can be used to report EU sales in one quarterly return.
- OSS applies only to cross-border B2C goods and services; domestic Dutch sales still require regular VAT returns, and input VAT cannot be reclaimed through OSS.
- 2026 OSS deadlines are the last day of the month after each quarter: 30 Apr, 31 Jul, 31 Oct, and 31 Jan 2027.
- Late filing triggers an €82 fine, while late payment adds a 3% charge on unpaid VAT (capped at €6,709).
- Businesses must keep OSS records for 10 years, and non-EU VAT refund requests must be submitted digitally from 1 April 2026.
