It is very nice. It would be nice if people from outside of EU would add
some comments.
VAT is very common tax in many countries.
It would give as more information how to generic solution.

In Poland there is also no payment of VAT when buyer is outside of
Poland.
As I said before it's the same in France but like Roland outlined the
buyer must have a EU VAT number. Looks like it's a general EU rule.
Not sure what with retail buying in Webshop. But then probably it is VAT
of webshop location.
Yes, except if it"s more B2B oriented or if products are sold mostly to
companies. Actually as we don't know for sure it should be something
special in eCommerce UI to allow EU VAT number entry. I think I saw
already something like that when checking out softwares in EU.

What I mean registry, is separate report (list of operations). In Poland
there are six such lists:
1. Buys from Polish suppliers
2. Selling to Polish customers
3. Buys from EU suppliers
4. Selling to EU Customers
5. Buys from non EU suppliers
6. Selling to non EU customers
Maybe Italy has somthing similar, but not sure.
This adds normal report to tax authority every month (sometimes quarter)

Hi Marek,
in germany you have to be careful about a valid EU VAT ID: if buyer is
outside germany and has a valid id
(http://ec.europa.eu/taxation_customs/vies/vieshome.do?selectedLanguage=EN),
no VAT has to be applied.
Reporting varies in germany: may be monthly, quarterly (yearly?). you
may correct your monthly declarations at the end of year with your
final report.
what do you mean with:
> Reports can be separated per "Registry"

There are issed remaining. I will ask accountant about inter-european
trading. Usually VAT is paid in county of seller, but in some cases it
is paid in county of buyer (e.g. IT services). There are also
different types of documents, like customer refund, export invoice,
import invoice. In Poland is even document for correcting invoice
(partial refund or increase of invoice).
Greeting,
Marek

Hi Marek,
if it would be clear which things need to be defined / documented, I
would gather all information necessary for german VAT.

Welcome
I would like to parcitipate in VAT implementation for OFBiz. However
it would maybe be good to gather requirements for different
countries on on Wiki. I know requirements for Poland which are some
more specific than general EU. I could put them there.
