VATCompass exists because too many businesses discover their EU VAT exposure after it becomes expensive. We built a service that gets you clarity fast — before the problem finds you.
EU VAT is one of the most complex indirect tax regimes in the world. Thresholds differ by country. Rules change when you store inventory abroad. Marketplace platforms trigger obligations you never expected. And the penalties for non-compliance are real: back-taxes, interest, and registration obligations that can stretch back years.
Yet for most growing businesses — especially those scaling into Europe from the US, UK, or further afield — VAT compliance is not top of mind until something goes wrong.
VATCompass was created to close that gap. A fast, affordable, expert-led screening report that tells you where you stand across all 27 EU member states — before you get a letter from a tax authority.
Founder & Lead VAT Specialist
Our founder, Liga Upeniece, brings over 14 years of experience in EU VAT, spanning in-house and interim roles at global multinationals, ERP VAT implementations, and advisory work for cross-border businesses. She is also the founder of VAT Incorporated.
Throughout her career, Liga has worked closely with FBA sellers, logistics providers, SaaS companies, and international retailers — gaining hands-on expertise in VAT compliance, process implementation, and cross-border transaction advisory.
VATCompass was built as the solution Liga wished she'd had for her clients: a structured, affordable, and fast way to cut through the complexity of EU VAT. It's designed to give businesses clarity on their obligations from day one — without the need for expensive consultants or long wait times.
At VATCompass, we make the complex simple so you can focus on growing your business — confidently and compliantly.
