Confused about what to declare on DAC7
As everyone else, I have filled out the DAC7 form. However, I wonder if I made a mistake.
The last question is about whether I have "Permanent Establishment" in any EU countries _other_ than the country where my business address is.
My business address is in Sweden, and I have no esablishment in any other EU country. So, I selected "no" on that question. However, does Amazon FBA count as a permanent establishment? I do store goods at Amazon fulfilment centers in Germany, and I have a German VAT number and pay VAT in Germany. Iäve never even been to Germany, though, and other than Amazon FBA my company has nothing to do with Germany'
Should I have entered "yes", and selected Germany as a Permanent Establishment Country? Or was it correct to select "no"?

Hello @Seller_i3TgqpA6SN0nm,
Here Sharon from Amazon, thank you for sharing your experience in this forum. I’ll try to help you as best as I can.
If your Business was established and registered in Sweden and you mainly operate from there, you have selected the correct option. However, is important to know, that for some countries as Germany, once you shipped a product from there, even if you have opted in for OSS VAT Declaration, you would need to have a valid VAT Number for Germany.
Please be aware that, once you have confirmed DAC7 information through the dedicated Dashboard, you have to make sure that after 24- 48 hours the status has changed to compliant. Should you have any technical problems or further questions, please open a case through Help. My colleagues from Account Health Support will help you further.
I hope this information was of assistance to you!
Kind regards,
Sharon
