German VAT question and seller fee invoices
We're about to report our first quarter on Amazon. All the transactions from customers are handled by the transaction report, so that's fine. However, I'm baffled by the seller fee invoices. Shouldn't we be elligble to get back VAT from the partner carrier shipment that shipped our products from Sweden to Germany or other fees related to Amazon? I can't find the fee anywhere, the only thing I can find is seller invoices related to "Gebühren für Verkaufen bei Amazon" and "Gebühren im Zusammenhang mit Versand durch Amazon", is the fee included in here?
Furthermore, why's there a VAT 25 percent on all the seller invoices for the DE marketplace? We're a swedish company where the VAT is 25 percent, but all the charges are in EUR and downloaded on the German portal. I'm a bit confused.
Thanks

Hi @Seller_iDkha9CkbiXqz,
welcome to the German Seller Forums.
I am Jona from Amazon.
For tax related topics, I would generally recommend you to consult a tax advisor.
Regarding the VAT percentage for the DE store, did you reach out to Seller support so they can double check the invoice?
Best,
Jona
