How it works

Set it up once, then it runs by itself

  1. 1

    Set up your scheme

    You either charge VAT or fall under the KOR. On top of that, you can turn on OSS and VAT reverse charge for Belgium if they apply to you.

  2. 2

    Set a different rate per product when needed

    One default rate per country, and a different rate for any product that deviates: 9% or 0% for the Netherlands, 12%, 6% or 0% for Belgium.

  3. 3

    Every invoice is correct

    The delivery country determines the VAT, not the billing address. The VAT overview adds it up per quarter.

Selling in Belgium: OSS

If you sell more than € 10.000 per year to consumers in other EU countries, the rate of the buyer's country applies and you file your return through the One-Stop Shop (OSS). Once you turn on OSS, buyers in Belgium get the Belgian rate from that moment on.

Reverse-charging VAT to business buyers in Belgium

If a Belgian buyer has given a VAT number on bol, the VAT can be reverse-charged to them. The invoice then shows 0% VAT, with the note "VAT reverse charged" (in French "Autoliquidation de la TVA").

Small business scheme (KOR)

If you fall under the KOR, Bkoppeling creates invoices without VAT, with a line stating that you are exempt from VAT under the small business scheme. The rates you have set then don't apply.

The VAT overview per quarter

Pick the quarter and the year and you see your revenue excluding VAT, the VAT and the total, grouped by the buyer's country and by rate, with reverse-charged VAT and KOR shown separately. Credit invoices count as negative. You can download all invoices of that quarter as a CSV for your accountant.

French-speaking buyers

If a buyer orders in French, they get the invoice and the email in French. The fixed parts of the invoice are translated; your own texts appear exactly as you typed them.

Good to know

What Bkoppeling doesn't do here, so you don't run into any surprises.

  • OSS and VAT reverse charge work for Belgium, not for other EU countries.
  • Bkoppeling calculates with the scheme you set. Which scheme applies to your business is for your accountant or the Dutch Tax Authority to decide: this is not tax advice.
  • If you're based in Belgium and deliver to Belgian businesses, that invoice has had to go through Peppol since 2026. Bkoppeling doesn't offer that.

Questions

Questions about VAT

Don't see your question? Email klantenservice@bkoppeling.nl.

Which VAT rate appears on an invoice to Belgium?

By default, the Dutch rate. If you sell more than € 10.000 a year to consumers in other EU countries, the rate of the buyer's country applies and you file your return through the One-Stop Shop (OSS). You turn this on in Bkoppeling with one switch; from that moment, buyers in Belgium get the Belgian rate.

Can I reverse-charge the VAT to a business buyer in Belgium?

Yes. If you turn this on, a Belgian buyer who has given a VAT number at bol gets an invoice without VAT, stating that the VAT has been reverse-charged.

I sell books or food. Can a product have a different rate?

Yes. You set a default rate per country, and for a product that differs you choose another rate: 9% or 0% for the Netherlands, 12%, 6% or 0% for Belgium.

I fall under the KOR. What appears on the invoice then?

No VAT, but a line stating that you are exempt from VAT. The rates you have set don't apply then.

Does Bkoppeling help with my VAT return?

With the figures, not with the return itself. The VAT overview adds up your revenue and VAT per quarter, per buyer's country and per rate, from your invoices and credit invoices. Always have your return checked by your accountant.

Is this tax advice?

No. Bkoppeling calculates using the scheme and rates that you set. Which scheme applies to your business is determined by your accountant or the Dutch Tax Administration.
