EU VAT registration - VAT in Slovenia

General Information:

In preparation for accession to the European Union, Slovenia introduced a value added tax in 1999, which underwent significant modifications in 2002 and 2004. It is known locally as “Davek na dodano vrednost” (DDV).

The Slovenian VAT system is based on the VAT Act of 1999, updated to reflect EU requirements for imports, intra-Community supplies etc. It is managed by the Ministry of Finance through the tax authorities. The agency issues regular Tax Bulletins with detailed guidance on daily matters.

The rules governing Slovenian VAT registration, compliance, declarations and other reporting are included in the VAT Act. This is based on the EU VAT directives that Slovenia is obliged to adopt as an EU member.
