Beschreibung

We are a China-based company operating a DTC e-commerce business targeting customers in Germany and other EU markets. We are currently setting up our German entity/branch and are looking for an experienced German VAT professional for long-term cooperation.
Our main need is ongoing operational German VAT compliance rather than purely advisory support.
Scope of Work
We will provide the necessary sales data, transaction data, VAT reports and supporting documents. We are looking for a professional who can take responsibility for the remaining VAT compliance workflow, including:
  • Review and reconcile sales and transaction data
  • German VAT calculation and compliance review
  • Preparation and/or submission of quarterly German VAT returns (USt-Voranmeldungen)
  • Annual German VAT return (Umsatzsteuer-Jahreserklärung)
  • OSS and ZM filings where applicable
  • VAT-related documentation and working papers
  • Identification and resolution of VAT discrepancies or issues
  • Routine coordination and communication with the Finanzamt where legally permitted
  • Coordination with a qualified German Steuerberater where formal tax advice, filing or representation requires a licensed professional
  • Ongoing support for our German and EU cross-border e-commerce VAT compliance
Our current German VAT reporting is quarterly. Most of our sales are currently generated in Germany, with a small proportion from other EU countries.
Ideal Candidate
We are particularly interested in candidates with:
  • Practical experience with German Umsatzsteuer/VAT compliance
  • Hands-on experience with USt-Voranmeldungen and annual VAT returns
  • Experience with OSS and ZM is highly desirable
  • Experience with international or e-commerce businesses, especially cross-border EU transactions
  • Good understanding of German VAT regulations and practical compliance procedures
  • Experience working with or coordinating with German Steuerberater and/or Finanzamt
  • Ability to work independently and manage the ongoing compliance workflow
A German Steuerberater qualification is not necessarily required if you can legally perform the operational work and coordinate with a qualified Steuerberater for matters requiring formal professional involvement.
Pricing
For internal comparison, please provide an indicative fixed fee for ongoing quarterly VAT compliance.
Ideally, please indicate:
  • Quarterly fee for the regular VAT compliance scope
  • Whether Steuerberater fees can be included
  • Any additional recurring fees or transaction-volume thresholds
  • Initial setup/review fee, if applicable
The final fee can of course be adjusted based on transaction volume and the exact scope.
We are looking for a reliable professional for long-term cooperation and would prefer a clear, predictable pricing structure.
