The procedures outlined below require user identification via a reliable electronic certificate (Luxtrust business certificate).
Identification to the VAT
Companies that need to register for VAT may file their initial VAT return with the competent tax office on paper or in electronic format using MyGuichet.lu.
Filing VAT returns
Since 1 January 2017, all electronic VAT returns must be filed using the eCDF system.
The eCDF system should be used to file the following:
- periodic and annual VAT returns filed for a period starting from 1st January 2015
- recapitulative statements concerning a period starting from 1st January 2017.
For prior periods, the former eTVA-D system can still be used.
Viewing a VAT account situation
Companies can view their VAT account situation online using the eTVA-C application on MyGuichet.lu.
Verification of a VAT number
As needed, companies can verify the validity of a VAT number on the website of the European Commission.
