Latvia: OSS quarterly VAT return due by the end of the following month
Date note: The dataset previously only carried an Estonia-jurisdiction OSS entry (ee-oss-vat-return-quarterly); since a deadline's jurisdiction gates which country profiles see it, Latvia-registered OSS filers need their own entry even though the EU-level deadline mechanics are identical.
Every quarter (from October), due by the 31st. · Only applies to businesses registered for the OSS Union scheme (cross-border B2C sales of goods/services to consumers in other EU member states above EUR 10,000/year, or voluntary registration below that). Deadline is the last calendar day of the month following the quarter (30 Apr / 31 Jul / 31 Oct / 31 Jan).
What changes
Latvia-registered businesses using the EU VAT One Stop Shop (Union scheme, for cross-border B2C sales of goods and digital/other services to consumers in other EU member states above the EUR 10,000 combined threshold) must submit their OSS VAT return via VID's EDS electronically by the last day of the month following each calendar quarter, and pay any VAT due by the same date. The deadline mechanics are set at EU level and are identical in every member state; only the filing portal (EDS for Latvia) differs.
Who is affected
Latvia-registered companies selling goods or digital/other services to consumers in other EU member states whose combined cross-border B2C turnover exceeds EUR 10,000 a year and who use the OSS Union scheme instead of registering for VAT in each customer's country.
Sizes: micro, small, medium, large · Sectors: E-commerce, Software / SaaS, Professional services, Retail · Applies if: We sell online; We sell to consumers (B2C); We export outside the EU
What to do
Register for the OSS Union scheme in VID's EDS once cross-border B2C sales are expected to exceed EUR 10,000/year (or opt in voluntarily). File the OSS VAT return and pay VAT due electronically by 30 April (Q1), 31 July (Q2), 31 October (Q3) and 31 January (Q4, following year).
