How can we help?

Ask Sovi VAT guidance

Ask Sovi now goes beyond product guidance. You can ask about country-specific VAT obligations, filing requirements, and VAT codes across 50 countries, backed by 40+ years of Sovos regulatory expertise, right inside Sovos VAT Filing.

Knowledge areas

Ask Sovi provides answers across four areas of country-specific VAT knowledge:
VAT filing obligations
Which returns, listings, and declarations apply in a given country.
VAT filing reports
The structure, format, and filing requirements for each report.
VAT codes
Which codes map to which box numbers in a return.
Report transaction fields
The data fields included in reports such as EC Sales List (ESL) and Intrastat.
Tip:

Ask specific questions and include the country and report name. For example, "Germany VAT return box 81" works better than "VAT codes".

Example questions

Here are some questions you can ask Sovi to get started:

  • “Which VAT codes apply to box 81 in Germany?”

  • “Which VAT codes cover intra-community acquisitions in Poland?”

  • “What are the reduced rate VAT codes for Poland?”

  • “What is the transaction field for the invoice amount in the German Intrastat Dispatch report?”

  • “What is the rounding rule for the Hungarian VAT return?”

  • “What reports are available for Lithuania?”

Supported countries
