EU VAT registration - VAT in Slovenia

Informative:

In preparation for its accession to the European Union, Slovenia introduced a goods and services tax in 1999, which was significantly modified in 2002 and 2004. Locally, it is known as Davek na dodano vrednost (DDV).

Slovenia’s VAT system is based on the 1999 VAT Act, updated to reflect EU requirements for imports, intra-Community supplies, etc. It is administered by the Ministry of Finance through the Tax Authority. The agency issues regular Tax Bulletins with detailed guidance on day-to-day matters.

The rules governing Slovenian VAT registration, compliance, declarations and other reporting are contained in the VAT Act. This is based on EU VAT directives, which Slovenia is obliged to adopt as an EU member.
