Country-by-country VAT and EPR obligation screening for cross-border e-commerce sellers expanding into the EU. Fixed fee. No retainers. No waiting.
Most cross-border sellers discover their EU VAT and EPR exposure after it becomes expensive. Penalties. Back-taxes. Amazon listing suspensions. VATCompass closes that gap — fast, affordable, expert-led screening that tells you where you are obligated to register across 27 EU VAT countries and 8 EPR markets.
Built by an EU VAT and EPR specialist with 14+ years of hands-on practice across FBA sellers, logistics providers, and international retailers. A TaxTech diagnostic platform — not a generic tool.

EU VAT and EPR obligations don't follow a single rule. Thresholds differ by country. Storing FBA inventory triggers local obligations regardless of your sales volume. Pan-EU FBA automatically distributes your stock across multiple countries — each of which may require registration.
VATCompass analyses your specific business profile and delivers a clear verdict per country — register, monitor, or not required — so you know exactly what to act on.
Not all obligations are equally urgent. Some countries require immediate action. Others can be monitored. VATCompass ranks your compliance obligations by priority — so you know where to focus first and what can wait.
Every report includes direct links to official registration portals, PRO schemes, and where required, notes on Authorised Representative requirements — so you can take action without wading through dense regulatory text.
Generic tax tools don't understand cross-border e-commerce. VATCompass was built from the ground up for sellers using Amazon's Pan-European and European Fulfilment Network programmes, Shopify merchants shipping into the EU, and any business navigating cross-border VAT and EPR obligations.
Our intake form captures your exact selling footprint — sales countries, stock countries, packaging volume, product categories — and maps it against current VAT and EPR rules in each jurisdiction.
