Read onlyDas Finanzamt hat sich gemeldet und möchte eine Umsatzsteuernachzahlung für 2021 mit entsprechenden Aufschlägen… was ich nicht versteh, warum ich eine Umsatzsteuer zahlen soll da ich Kleinunternehmer und Umsatzsteuerbefreit bin.
Bei einem Telefonat wurde gesagt ich habe aus Luxemburg Dienstleistungen in Anspruch genommen welche Umsatzsteuerpflichtig sind.
Ich kann ist der Info aktuell nicht viel anfangen und hoffe auf Eure Erfahrung.

Translation:
"The tax office has contacted me and wants an additional sales tax payment for 2021 with corresponding surcharges... which I don't understand why I should pay sales tax since I am a small business owner and exempt from sales tax. During a phone call I was told that I had used services from Luxembourg that were subject to VAT. I can't do much with the information at the moment and hope for your experience."
As this is the UK forum please post in English or try the German forum.
If you are based outside of the UK and sell on the UK site then you must pay VAT to UK HMRC, there is no threshold in that instance.
Amazon are based in Luxembourg and during the period you mention seller fees paid to Amazon were taxed at the Luxembourg rate. Everyone pays that VAT, only those VAT registered can claim it back on their quarterly VAT return.
