VAT compliance made easy

The team at LOVAT have been great from the start. From taking time to answer queries by Chat/email, to the application process, and keeping me updated with the progress of everything.

If you wish to trade in the EU or in the UK, you need to be VAT compliant. And this is where LOVAT comes in, as they remove the all the paperwork and hassle from your hands, and streamline the application process to the various tax authorities (if you apply for this option). I wish I had known about them earlier.

Then comes the reporting, once you start trading in these zones. And again this is where the LOVAT system kicks in : they connect to the various tax authorities, and you can easily submit your tax reports. Since the system connects to Shopify, then all your transactions are imported directly onto their platform, making the reporting process easier.

Overall there is a little understanding required on your behalf to be compliant, and you need to adhere to the dates of the reporting, however once everything is set up it is a breeze. There is no reason why your business shouldn't be VAT compliant in the UK /EU anymore since services and tools like LOVAT exist.

There are other VAT compliancy services out there, but they are not so straightforward or honest as LOVAT. Many others do not have automatic API (connection) to Shopify, and the registration fees are unbelievable for small businesses. In addition, there are lots of hidden fees with the others, or long time contracts and penalties.

I am still new to the LOVAT system, only recently implemented it, but so far I am very happy and would certainly recommend you give them a go. The price/service/functionality is the best I have seen so far.

Thank you, to the entire LOVAT team.

Very happy so far!

Very happy so far. I contacted LOVAT when I was looking for a partner and tool to issue VAT filings in Europe (at a fair price).

The tool and its interface are pretty self-explanatory and give a good overview. Everything works properly.

I really appreciate the quick and very friendly support and - for now - can highly recommend LOVAT as a professional partner. Thanks to Peter and Natela for their effort.

EORI in the UK and Poland in 1 day!

This team surprised me! In the morning I made an application for registration of an EORI number in two countries. An hour later, the power of attorney was sent to me and the next day both registrations were already completed. It's really very fast.

Really happy to have found LOVAT

I was so stressed having to deal with European taxes since our business is non-EU based. The LOVAT team was so helpful, they answered all my questions and offered all the help I needed to register the business and pay our taxes. Had a bit of an issue in the end because when we sent the payment there were some hidden fees that we were unaware of and the tax department didn't receive the full payment, which made us have to send another payment and pay more fees. However, the LOVAT team still did all they could to help us get around this and finally it was all solved and paid. I really recommend them.

Great service

Great service! Their platform is easy to use and the support was quick to respond to both my technical questions related to the use of their platform and VAT compliance questions throughout the entire collaboration. They have also managed to make the process look simple when transfering from my old tax representative to LOVAT. Overall, very happy and would recommend to anyone, especially online marketplace sellers needing VAT compliance in EU.

So simple and straightforward software for tax purposes.

We were looking for a company to help us apply for VAT reporting in other EU countries and we found Lovat software.
Opening up new possibilities for calculating and filing reports with controlling my taxes in my area was a great and painless experience for me.

Easy to setup and use platform for VAT reporting

Thanks to LOVAT I've successfully expanded my business to various countries and continue to do so. What I thought is that it would not possible to set up everything so fast and easily as I was really scared of all these different tax obligations and rules. However, right now all my tax matters are being handled in one place thanks to Lovat platform. At first glance personally for me it looked complicated to use but after a short introduction and call with support everything became clear and I'm successfully using it on my own whenever I need to file my VAT returns or other tax reports.

I’ve finally found a software that meets my tax-related expectations thanks to LOVAT

VAT compliance procedures were never as quick and simple as they are now with LOVAT, their software is fast-learning use and they provide all the necessary information on how to use their services. Their tax experts will always be willing to help in case that any support is needed. Now, I can focus myself in other aspects of my business while LOVAT take care of my tax matters.

Thanks to integration all of my transactions are uploading almost automatically so I don’t have to worry about any missing data in the process.
