The French Tax Authority has issued a circular to non-resident businesses who registered for VAT with effect July 1, 2021 as a result of e-commerce changes and the removal of the VAT distance selling thresholds for goods in the EU. It states that multiple foreign businesses should have been registered for French VAT before this date, on the basis that they breached the historic French VAT registration distance selling threshold of EUR 35,000 in a calendar year.
