  • Zero Rate: 0% — intra-EU supplies and exports (when conditions are met)

Q3 What is the filing cycle?

Default cycle: Quarterly; monthly for high-turnover businesses. Contact SPEEDVAT for your schedule.
Q4 Do I need to register for OSS (One Stop Shop)?

If you sell goods or digital services to consumers (B2C) across EU borders, you may benefit from the OSS (One Stop Shop) scheme in addition to — or instead of — local Danish VAT registration, depending on your business model.

  • Simplifies VAT declarations for cross-border B2C sales
  • Single quarterly return instead of multiple country registrations
  • Often relevant for e-commerce and marketplace sellers
Consult SPEEDVAT to determine whether Danish moms registration, OSS, or both fit your situation.
