Import Duties

[fixitsan]

What we've got lately is a VAT payment service for foreign webshops. Wemoto, ebay and Aliexpress all use it, meaning no handling fees + no purchaser country VAT. Really nice

It's VOEC

 

 

Apparently it started in April 2020 ? Prior to that, was there any VAT on low value items ? 

I think I probably know the answer, because I can't recall many times when VAT obligations were removed.

 

Death and taxes, as they say

VAT On E-Commerce - VOEC

As a foreign provider of electronic services to Norwegian consumers (B2C), you're obliged to collect and pay VAT to Norwegian tax authorities.

Foreign sellers and online marketplaces must also from 1 April 2020 register, declare and pay VAT on low value goods (below NOK 3,000) sales to Norwegian consumers (B2C).

Foreign sellers and marketplaces that are registered in the VOEC scheme already can use their current registration to report and pay VAT on low value goods. If you only sell electronic services and are registered in the VOES register, you do not need to take any further action.
