How are Intrastat reports prepared and filed?
Once you’re registered for Intrastat and we have access to the relevant filing portals, we’ll get to work on your Intrastat report.
Please fill out the data template we sent you during the registration process. We’ll need this information by the 4th of each month to prepare your report. If our Intrastat team has any questions about the data, they’ll be in touch.
If you have new products in a month’s data, you need to update your Product Catalogue and send it to us with the rest of your data (by the 4th). If you don’t do this, we’ll have to charge you an extra fee to prepare that information for you, as it needs to be included in the submission.
Once your Intrastat report has been prepared, we’ll compare it to your VAT returns and ECSL submissions. This is a really important step as the national authorities compare their information. If the data doesn’t match across your reports and returns, you will likely be audited.
When the report is prepared and the checks are done, we’ll submit it and send you a confirmation of submission.
