What are the procedures?

Companies established outside of the European Union can file Slovakian VAT refund claims without needing to appoint a tax representative. Nevertheless, they can always appoint a tax agent who will take charge of all the steps of your Slovakian VAT refund claim.

They can file their claims either for a calendar quarter or for a calendar year.

If their claim is submitted for a calendar quarter, it must be on a VAT amount of EUR 400 minimum.

If their claim is submitted for a calendar year, it must be on a VAT amount of EUR 50 minimum.

The claim can be filed starting the month following a calendar quarter, or, where it applies, each calendar year.

In any case, it must be submitted within six months after the end of the calendar year during which refundable VAT has become chargeable, namely until 30th June N+1.
