Standard VAT codes

Regnskaps- og skattepapirer

SAF-T format

In 2016, Sticos and the Tax Administration jointly prepared new VAT codes that are included as part of the new standard format. There is no requirement for businesses to post the vouchers with the new codes, but the system suppliers must have a solution for submitting the information in standard format.

From 1 January 2020, all businesses must arrange their accounting systems so that it is possible to reproduce booked information in a given standard data format - SAF-T. In connection with auditing, accounting data must be able to be reported electronically to the Tax Administration in accordance with a standardized structure.
