VAT Returns

Use

In Taiwan, you have to file value-added tax (VAT) returns periodically with your local tax office. They must provide information on all vendor and customer invoices, and are categorized per Government Uniform Invoice (GUI) format. You can submit them either on paper or as an electronic file.

Of those VAT returns that the tax authorities require, we deliver functions to create the:

Detailed VAT return
403 VAT return
401 VAT return

If your company prefers to submit its VAT returns as an electronic file, you can create and submit them using the Data Medium Exchange Engine (DMEE). If your company prefers to submit its VAT returns on paper, the electronic files can provide you with all the necessary information to complete the forms.

Integration

The DME files are generated using data from the standard Advance Return on for Tax on Sales/Purchases report.

Prerequisites

You have maintained your:

Business place(s)
GUI formats
GUI number ranges

Features

The system automatically copies the GUI numbers of the invoices to the electronic files.

Depending on whether your company reports its VAT decentrally or centrally, you can choose to generate your electronic files per individual business place or through the main business place.

Activities

In order to generate your electronic files, you have to:

Create and customize your own format tree(s) by copying the DMEE format trees for the relevant returns.

Run the standard Advance Return for Taxes on Sales and Purchases report.

Under Output control, select Read address data.

Under Posting parameters, select Create DME file and enter the required Format tree and the File name.

Additionally, you have the option to run report RFASLDPC to download the DMEE file to your frontend system.

Result

When you run your Advance Return for Taxes on Sales and Purchases, the system selects the relevant data and generates a report list. The system then saves the data in the application server. You can view the file created by accessing transaction AL11.

If you choose to run report RFASLDPC, you can view your VAT media file on your frontend system.
