OSS vs IOSS: what is the difference?

OSS (One Stop Shop)

The OSS scheme allows businesses selling goods or certain services to consumers in other EU Member States to declare and pay eligible VAT through one quarterly return in Estonia instead of registering in multiple countries.

IOSS (Import One Stop Shop)

The IOSS scheme is designed for distance sales of imported goods with an intrinsic value of up to €150 sold to consumers in the EU. It simplifies VAT collection and customs clearance for eligible imports.

Registering for the correct VAT scheme can help you:

  • Simplify EU VAT compliance
  • Avoid multiple VAT registrations where the OSS/IOSS schemes apply
  • Reduce administrative work
  • Save time managing VAT obligations
