Lhůta pro podání žádosti o vrácení DPH z jiných členských států EU se blíží

We would like to draw your attention to the approaching deadline for submitting a claim for a refund of VAT paid in other EU Member States for the year 2024. The claim must be submitted no later than 30 September 2025. This deadline cannot be extended, and once it has passed, the right to claim a VAT refund expires.

If your company has incurred expenses subject to VAT in other EU countries as part of its business activities (e.g. accommodation, fuel, travel expenses, etc.), we recommend starting the preparation of your claim as soon as possible.

If you are filing a VAT refund claim for the first time, be sure to allow for extra time to gain access to the online VAT refund application system. Activation of access by the Financial Authority may take up to 15 days.

After the claim is submitted, the foreign tax authority may initiate a verification process to assess the legitimacy of the VAT refund. In this context, additional documents or clarifications are often required.

Our experts have extensive experience with these procedures and will be happy to assist you with preparing the application, communicating with foreign tax authorities, and successfully completing the refund process.
