Get your Spanish company listed in the EU VAT system and benefit from intracommunity VAT exemptions when doing business across borders.
If your Spanish company trades with other businesses within the EU, registering in the VIES (VAT Information Exchange System) is essential. It allows you to issue VAT-exempt invoices for cross-border sales and provides immediate verification of your trading partners’ VAT status.
We help you apply for a European VAT number (VIES) for your Spanish company, ensuring you meet all the requirements and are properly listed in the system.
VIES is an EU-wide electronic platform that allows businesses and tax authorities to:
When both companies involved in a transaction are registered in VIES and based in different EU countries, the transaction is VAT-exempt. If either party is not listed, VAT must be charged.
Without VIES registration, your Spanish company must apply VAT even in cross-border B2B transactions — which can create unnecessary cost and friction.
You should apply if your Spanish company:
Sells goods or services to companies in other EU countries.
Buys goods or services from EU-based companies.
Wants to benefit from intracommunity VAT exemption.
Needs to issue or receive invoices without VAT under EU rules.
