Digital services and SaaS VAT classification

Not every software-related supply is the same electronic service. Automation, human intervention, licence model, customer status and place of supply drive reverse-charge or OSS consequences.

01

What to verify

  • Original document and contractual supply context

  • Tax point, amounts, currency and corrections

  • Approval, export, retention and audit trail

02

Practical workflow

  1. 1

    Capture the decisive facts and select the correct jurisdiction and date.

  2. 2

    Resolve the time-valid rule and record its source, version and open questions.

  3. 3

    Align invoice, accounting, reporting and evidence; route uncertainty to review.

03

Worked example

A package combines platform access with bespoke consulting. Dynafis separates the automated SaaS element from the human service before applying VAT rules.

Common mistakes

  • !

    Treating uncertain extraction as approved tax data

05

Invoice and accounting impact

The result should be represented consistently in the invoice, structured data, accounting, reporting and evidence. If a decisive fact changes, the decision is recalculated and the previous version remains in the audit trail.
