In compliance with EU, UK, and Norwegian VAT requirements for deemed supply arrangements in digital services, AWS Marketplace now offers sellers an integrated platform to submit VAT invoices and receive automated tax disbursements. This replaces manual processes with automated validation, real-time status tracking, consolidated invoicing per currency and branch, and automatic payment processing upon receipt of buyer payment.

The service reduces administrative overhead for sellers operating across 20 jurisdictions, aligning with complex tax regulations on digital sales facilitated by AWS Marketplace. While the system automates key functions, sellers remain responsible for ensuring invoice accuracy and compliance with regional tax laws.
