Read onlyI have my UK VAT number from HMRC but amazon has also asked me to get a German VAT number, my 90 days deadline is finished but i have gone to my accountant 2 days ago and he has applied for the german Vat number for me and said this will take another 2 months to get the german Vat. Will it be possible to get an extension because i do not want my account to be suspended i will only trade on amazon UK as i have my UK Vat number and once i receive my german vat number i will start trading on amazon germany. Please guide me in this matter
I don’t believe an extension is possible- did you leave it till 2 days before deadline to apply?
Why do you need this Vat reg though? Do you have stock there?
Hello @Seller_5eK55YsrimJLf,
Thank you for posting on Forums!
This is Sarah with Amazon.
To request an extended deadline, you must inform Amazon that your VAT number application is in progress and confirm that you will be clearing all retrospective payments to the relevant tax authority. Once you make these acknowledgements, you will be given an additional 60 days to provide the VAT number.
Go to Tax compliance acknowledgement to request your extension.

Best regards,
Sarah.
