How to use a country guide
Start with the European Commission country factsheets for European countries, then the national tax authority or government platform for that country, then the trading partner or public buyer that will receive the invoice. Check scope first (who is obliged, and for which transactions), then format, then route, then reporting. A date on this site is the date the guide was checked, not a promise that a rule will change on a given day.
