Does this fit your company?

A fit for you
You manage projects in another EU country with subcontractors or self-employed workers.
Your subcontractors come from several countries, including the project country.
You run several projects a year, sometimes in different countries.
You want to do the paperwork yourself, ask the helpdesk, or use a local expert.
Looking for something else?
You only need an A1 certificate. Apply in your home country; we recommend doing that yourself.
You need tax advice or local VAT registration. We refer you to a local expert.
