How to set up VAT for a second country

Hello All, I'm in the US and set up QBS Pro UK for our German office and I added the last few years of historical data. Now my CFO wants to start filling and reclaiming VAT for our Vienna office. I used the Manage VAT to create another tax agency and another accrued tax account. What else do I need to do? My supplier bills and customer invoices only have one VAT field. How do I map it to the correct VAT account? I am thinking that I need a second set of VAT codes. I am new to VAT and want to make sure that I am doing this correct. Please let me kow how to set this up. Many thanks for all your help in advance. Take care, Anne

Hi Anne,

 

Currently, we only support a one-agency setup in QuickBooks Desktop. You can try finding a third-party app to manage your other agency taxes. Check this out: https://desktop.apps.com/home. Select the QuickBooks Pro filter and search something about VAT or tax. Then, view the app's profile and contact their provider.

 

Feel free to go back to this thread if you have additional questions.

Consider having a seperate company file for each country office to minimize your confusion. You may consolidate the report as required.
