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 VAT refund claims for VAT incurred in other EU Member States during 2025. The claims must be submitted no later than 30 September 2026. This deadline cannot be extended and, once it has passed, the entitlement to a VAT refund is forfeited.

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

If this is your first time submitting a VAT refund claim, be sure to allow sufficient time to obtain access to the online VAT refund application. Activation of access by the Czech Tax Authority may take up to 15 days.

Following submission of the VAT refund claim, the foreign Tax Authorities may initiate a verification process to assess the legitimacy to the VAT refund. In this context, additional documents or clarifications are often required.

Our specialists have extensive experience with these procedures and would be pleased to assist you with the preparation of your application, communication with foreign Tax Authorities, and the successful processing of your VAT refund claim.
