Understanding the Monthly VAT Recoverable Report - Belgium

The Belgian Tax Authorities require monthly VAT reports on the detail of the VAT amounts that are declared on all of the supplier vouchers. All suppliers must be included on the report, including Belgian suppliers, European Union (EU) member suppliers, and non-EU suppliers.

The Monthly VAT Recoverable Report (R74B110) includes:

• Amounts at the document number levels.

• Summary VAT Report code totals.

The report consists of two parts:

• Detail information at the document number levels.

• Summary totals per VAT Report Code.
