What is VOEC?
VOEC (VAT On E-Commerce) is Norway's VAT registration system for foreign ecommerce businesses selling goods to Norwegian consumers. Since April 2020, foreign businesses selling low-value goods (under NOK 3,000) to Norway must register for VOEC and charge 25% Norwegian VAT.
What is OSS?
OSS (One Stop Shop) is the EU's system for simplifying VAT when selling to consumers in other EU countries. Since July 2021, you can use OSS instead of registering for VAT in each individual EU country.
How does it affect your integration?
The biggest challenge is ensuring that VAT information from the webshop translates correctly to the ERP. Every order needs to land on the right account with the right tax code. With a Junipeer integration, you configure the VAT mapping once and every order flows automatically.
