What impact would deregistration have if I have a fiscal representative?
If you’re looking to deregister in a country where you’re working with a fiscal representative, we’ll take care of the initial legwork for you. Once you initiate your request with us, we’ll gather the necessary documentation before passing it along to your fiscal representative. Depending on the Member State they operate in, they may either provide us with additional documents or request further paperwork from you.
After we’ve compiled all the signed documentation, your fiscal rep will handle the submission of your final returns. They’ll also take care of submitting your deregistration request and will rescind their power of attorney (POA) on your behalf in one smooth process.
It’s important to remember that fiscal representatives requiring a bank guarantee when signing up may have varying timelines for returning that deposit. Each country has their own specific time scale which they adhere to. This information would have been confirmed with you before signing with the fiscal representative.
Please note that there is no refund for the annual fiscal representative fee if you choose to deregister your VAT number in the middle of the year.
