Tracking VAT Paid on Imports into Slovakia
Often, the customs office levies VAT on imports at the border crossing (inland or airport). This levy is paid either by the transporter before the goods are released, or by you directly on an account basis. These costs are basically 100% VAT bills. To make sure NetSuite picks up these taxes when you generate the VAT report for Slovakia, you should use the following tax codes:
DUTY-P |
Import VAT – paid |
Paid Import VAT |
Purchases |
DUTY-U |
Import VAT – unpaid |
Import VAT |
Purchases |
DUTY-PR |
Import VAT – paid (reduced rate) |
Paid Import VAT Reduced Rate |
Purchases |
DUTY-UR |
Import VAT – unpaid (reduced rate) |
Import VAT Reduced Rate |
Purchases |
When entering the transaction, you must record this cost as input tax, where the total amount represents the VAT amount. The full tax amount shown on the vendor bill must be entered in the Net Amount field (bills or journals).
The following lists examples of how you can use the tax codes:
-
In most cases, at the point of import (at the border, or airport, or customs house), the customs office values the goods and impose VAT that your company must pay before the goods are released. You can record this input tax using the DUTY-P tax code for import VAT paid on standard rate purchases. For import VAT paid on reduced rate purchases, you can use the DUTY-PR tax code.
-
Sometimes, the freight or transport company pays the VAT to customs for you, then passes the charge to you. You can record this input tax using the DUTY-P tax code for import VAT paid on standard rate purchases. For import VAT paid on reduced rate purchases, you can use the DUTY-PR tax code.
-
Other times, the customs office bills your company, and you pay the tax bill like any other vendor bill. You can record this input tax using the DUTY-U tax code for unpaid import VAT on standard rate purchases. For unpaid import VAT on reduced rate purchases, you can use the DUTY-UR tax code.
