Hi Billwerk tribe,

We are thrilled to introduce our latest feature: B2B Reverse Charge! This enhancement is designed to make selling your services across the EU smoother and more compliant with tax regulations. Reverse charging is a tax mechanism where the recipient of the goods or services is liable to pay the tax instead of you, the supplier. This is only applicable for B2B transactions involving cross-border services or goods in the EU. The Reverse Charge mechanism does not apply to B2C transactions.

What does this mean for you?

Reverse Charge functionality empowers B2B finance teams to navigate complex international tax scenarios effortlessly. By automating the identification, calculation, and reporting of reverse charges, we help you maintain compliance, reduce risk, and free up valuable time for strategic financial planning.

Tax handling: Our system now applies the tax rates configured in the Tax Policy, ensuring compliance without any extra effort from you. When the Reverse Charge setting is enabled, the system will handle the application of reverse charge where ever applicable.
Simplified operations: No need to manage complex tax rules or keep track of different tax rates for various countries. We’ve got it covered, freeing up your time to focus on growing your business.
Accurate invoicing: Rest assured that your invoices will reflect the appropriate tax information, reducing the risk of errors and potential penalties.

How to Enable: To take advantage of this feature, simply create a new Tax Policy or edit an existing under Configurations and turn on the Reverse Charge setting.

When is Reverse Charge Applied?

Countries: The reverse charge is applied when the customer’s country is different from your account’s country.
VAT ID: The customer's record in the system should have a valid VAT ID configured
Tax Policy: The tax policy associated with the Plan, Add-On and Usage-based billing has reverse charge enabled for it

Invoice and credit note update: When the Reverse Charge setting is enabled, your invoices and credit notes will include the text "Reverse Charge" in all the available EU languages in Billwerk+ Optimize as determined by Article 226 paragraph 11a of the VAT Directive 2006/112/EC (amending Directive 2010/45/EU of 13 July 2010)

Why is this Important? Implementing reverse charges on B2B invoices and subscriptions can significantly impact your tax management processes, offering financial and operational advantages.
