4 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

The Mini-One-Stop-Shop (M1SS) System Design is a series of three documents describing the main processes of the system, namely Registration, VAT Return and Payments. The present document looks at the Registration process. Note that the supporting legislation for the specifications is still under discussion. This document reflects the current thinking and it will be updated if necessary as the legal framework evolves.

It is not the aim of the document to specify the processes at national level or the way the Member States communicate with the taxable persons. Nevertheless, this document may have impact of the Non-Established Taxable Persons (NETPs), e.g. as regards to the data that they have to provide.

This proposal defines the exchange of data between MSs via two different mechanisms:

• A mechanism to broadcast all new registrations and exclusions to all Member States;

• A query mechanism to access the national databases (DBs). This allows an efficient exchange of information between MSs.

The data elements to be exchanged are mainly issued from the SCAC587 document. Nevertheless, some technical information had to be added to ensure the proper functioning of the system.

The proposed exchange communication channel is CCN/CSI. A chapter proposes typical solutions that can be put in place by MSs.

(14)

5 OVERVIEW

The overview describes the actors and the processes involved in the Registration Process.

5.1 B USINESS OBJECTIVE OF THE PROCESS

The objective of the Registration Process is to allow any taxable person (TP) not established in the European Union (EU) or not established in the MS of Consumption (MSCON) and supplying telecommunication services, broadcasting services or electronic services to register to the special scheme covered by the M1SS and VAT-on-e-Services (VoeS), as far as all the conditions are met.

5.2 A CTORS

The actors section describes the different actors involved in the Registration Process.

• Non-Established Taxable Person (NETP);

• Member State of Consumption (MSCON);

• Member State of Establishment (MSEST);

• Member State of Identification (MSID);

• Other Member States.

The table below provides the definition of the actors according to the Directive [DIR06/112]. Actors Definition from the legal base

NETP

There are two types of NETP:

1) “ taxable person not established within the Community means a taxable person who has not established his business in the territory of the Community and who has no fixed establishment there and who is not otherwise required to be identified for VAT purposes;”, [DIR06/112], Art.

358a

The acronym Non-EU NETP is used in this document to refer to this actor.

2) “ taxable person not established in the Member State of consumption means a taxable person who has established his business in the territory of the Community or has a fixed establishment there but has not established his business and has no fixed establishment within the territory of the Member State of consumption;”, [DIR06/112], Art. 369a

The acronym EU NETP is used in this document to refer to this actor.

MSCON

“ Member State of consumption means the Member State in which the supply of the

telecommunications, broadcasting or electronic services is deemed to take place according to Article 58;”, [DIR06/112], Art. 358

MSEST

“Where a taxable person has not established his business in the Community, but has more than one fixed establishment therein, the Member State of identification shall be the Member State with a fixed establishment where that taxable person indicates that he will make use of this special scheme. The taxable person shall be bound by this decision for the calendar year concerned and the two calendar years following.

A Member State of Establishment is therefore a Member State where the taxable person has a fixed establishment but which is not his Member State of Identification.”, [DIR06/112], Art. 369a.

(15)

Actors Definition from the legal base

MSID

For an NETP in the sense of [DIR06/112], Art. 358a.

“Member State of identification” means the Member State which the taxable person not established within the Community chooses to contact to state when his activity as a taxable person within the territory of the Community commences in accordance with the provisions of this Section.”, [DIR06/112], Art. 358a.

For an NETP in the sense of [DIR06/112], Art. 369a.

“Member State of identification” means the Member State in the territory of which the taxable person has established his business or, if he has not established his business in the Community, where he has a fixed establishment.”, [DIR06/112], Art. 369a.

“A taxable person with more than one fixed establishment in the Community may indicate any of the Member States in which he is established as the Member State of identification pursuant to the second paragraph of Article 369a of Directive 2006/112/EC.” [R04], Art. 57d.

Other MS All MS except MSID.

Table 4: Actors

5.3 D OMAINS

As depicted on Figure 1, the main Mini-1SS domain is divided into three particular domains:

• Common domain;

• National domain;

• External domain.

These domains are described in Table 5.

Figure 1: Mini-1SS domains

(16)

Domain Definition

Common domain The Common domain is the environment that allows the various Member State Administrations to intercommunicate and falls under the responsibility of the Commission.

National domain

The National domain is located in the Member State Administration Environment. The National domain operates on the one hand as national network, which allows the national stakeholders to communicate to each other. On the other hand, it provides the national application (nationally or centrally developed), which allows the MSA to exchange information with the NAs in all other countries, and with the Commission if applicable.

External domain The External domain is the environment between the NETP’s applications and the NA. The network with the Economic Operators differs from one country to another.

Figure 2: Registration process structure

The Registration process covers the following processes:

Process NETP’s registration – the Registration request received from the NETP is processed by the MSID and subsequently transmitted to the Other MS. The process also covers the activities related to update of the registration information or exclusion of the NETP from the special scheme;

Process Registration information request – the MSID processes the information request received from the Other MS. The information request relates to the NETP’s registration data;

(17)

Process NETP’s exclusion – the MSID processes NETP’s voluntary request to cease using the special scheme or to change MSID while still fulfilling all criteria to be registered for the special scheme.

(18)

The high-level BPM shows the collaborations between actors and the sequence between the tasks (T) involved in the process.3

Other MSNETPMSID

Figure 3: Registration Process - High-level BPM

The Registration Process groups the tasks related to three sub-processes:

1. The NETP makes a request for registration, for voluntary exclusion or for update of its registration information to the MSID or notifies the MSID that it has changed his MSID;

2. The MSID decides to exclude an NETP as described in [DIR06/112], Art. 363 and 369e;

3. An MS requests registration information of a given NETP from an MSID, as mentioned in [REG10/904], Art.17.

3 The notation used is the BPMN 2.0 described in section 9.1 Guidelines BPMN.

(19)

5.5.1 NETP

MAKES REQUESTS TO THE

MSID

The process starts when the NETP sends a request to the MSID. Regarding changes to the registration information, the NETP’s obligation is defined in [CIR11/282], Art. 57f as follows:

“The taxable person shall communicate electronically to the Member State of identification where he ceases his activities covered by the special scheme or where he changes those activities in such a way that he no longer meets the conditions necessary for using this special scheme as well as any change of the information provided to the Member State of identification no later than the tenth day of the month following cessation or change.”

The requests from the NETP can be of three different types:

• Request registration;

• Request to update the registration information;

• Request Exclusion4.

Table 6 shows the relevant steps from Figure 3 to handle the different types. The related XML message structure is described in section 6.5.1.1.

Table 6: NETP requests

The tasks performed when the MSID receives a request from the NETP are described further as sub- processes:

• The Process Application sub-process from [DIR06/112], Art. 359, 369b is detailed in section 5.6;

The Process Registration Update sub-process from [REG10/904], Art. 19 is detailed in section 5.7;

The Process Exclusion sub-process from [DIR06/112], Art. 360, 369c and [CIR], Art. 57c is detailed in section 5.8.After processing the request, the MSID notifies the NETP in all cases (if the request is accepted or not). In case of new registration in the non-Union scheme, and only if the NETP is eligible to register for the special scheme, the VAT identification number allocated5 by the MSID is also notified to the NETP as described in [DIR06/112], Art. 362.

The MSID must transmit the new registration, or exclusion information to the other MS « within 10 days from the end of the month during which the information was received from NETP », [REG10/904], Art. 44.2. It allows the grouping of all registration information in one single message

5 In the case of a Non-EU NETP, the VAT identification number is allocated by the MSID during the registration process. In case of an EU NETP, it is assumed that the NETP is already identified for VAT purposes in the MSID and has a VAT identification number.

(21)

per month, but the MSID can alternatively use an event-driven approach and transmit information as soon as possible. The MSID must not automatically transmit updates of registration information The process ends when the NETP is notified and, if applicable, the MSID has transmitted the registration or exclusion to all Other MS.

5.5.2 MSID

EXCLUDES A REGISTERED

NETP

The process starts when the MSID decides to exclude a registered NETP. Table 7 describes the steps involved in the process. The related XML message structure is described in section 6.5.1.2.

“Where a taxable person is excluded from one of the special schemes for persistent failure to comply with the rules relating to that scheme, that taxable person shall remain excluded from using either scheme in any Member State for eight calendar quarters following the calendar quarter during which the taxable person was excluded.”

After processing the exclusion, the MSID notifies the NETP.

In case of exclusion, the information must be sent to the other MSs "without delay" ([REG10/904], Art. 44.3). The information must be submitted within 10 days from the end of the month. This allows the grouping of all registration information in one single message, as it is currently the case for VoeS.

Alternatively, the MSID may use an event-driven approach and transmit the exclusion information as soon as possible.

The process ends when the information has been transmitted to the Other MS and the NETP has been notified.

Once the request is received, the MSID looks into its national database in order to find the requested information. The MSID then transmits the requested information to the Other MS.

Since all updates are stored in MSID’s database, the answer can contain multiple "records" with the complete history of changes in the NETP registration information.

The process ends when the request is processed by the MSID and the information is received by the Other MS.

Table 9: Process Application sub-process

The first action from the MSID is to check the completeness of the information provided by the NETP.

The MSID checks also if the NETP is currently excluded from the special schemes ([DIR06/112], Art.

369a and Art. 369c) and if the NETP is eligible to apply for the special scheme. If the request is accepted, in the case of a Non-EU NETP, the MSID must allocate an identification number to the NETP. Finally, the MSID stores the registration information in the national database. The sub-process ends when the request is accepted or refused.

A special case could happen when the NETP registers more times consecutively to different MSIDs.

In this case, the following happens (let us assume two MSIDs - MSID1 and MSID2):

• Firstly, MSID2 will have been informed by MSID1 of the original registration - if they have kept this information, they can check against their database;

• Secondly, MSID2 will inform all the other Member States of the registration, including MSID1, who, if they are carrying out the appropriate checks, will see that there is already a registration in MSID1. They then inform MSID2, who makes the decision to exclude the NETP from the scheme. In turn, MSID1 can decide whether to exclude the NETP from the scheme in MSID1.

In addition, the NETP is obliged to inform the MSID about its previous registrations. The NETP does so by entering the previous VAT Identification numbers in the box 21 in Table 10.

As regards the check “Check information and eligibility” (T1.1), the minimum set of data for the registration message is defined in the legal base as follows:

“1. The information which the taxable person not established within the Community must provide to the Member State of identification when he commences a taxable activity shall contain the following details:

a) name;

b) postal address;

c) electronic addresses, including websites;

d) national tax number, if any;

e) a statement that the person is not identified for VAT purposes within the Community.”

Table 10: CIR – Registration

The NETP will be registered within the scheme via a unique identifier that can be:

• Based on [DIR06/112], Art. 369d, the MSID uses an existing VAT number if an EU NETP triggered the request. The VAT number used was already allocated previously;

Based on [DIR06/112], Art. 362, the MSID allocates a new identification number (VoeS number) if a Non-EU NETP triggered the request. An NETP always has a unique identifier. Its format has been defined in the VAT on e-services – Technical Specifications [R02] 3.3.3.2 Non-established taxable person ID and has the following structure: the “EU” string followed by 9 digits (the MSID ISO numeric 3 country code, the actual ID in 5 digits and one check digit).

A unique identifier can be assigned only once to an NETP. This means that if an NETP is excluded from the scheme, the identifier cannot be re-used for another taxable person.

However, it the excluded NETP is accepted again in the scheme, its previous identifier must be allocated to him again and all the history preserved. When the Non-EU NETP registers in another MSID, this one cannot re-allocate the VAT ID of the other MSID.

The storage in the national database is described in [REG10/904], Art. 17.1.d.

It is important to note that there is no central registration repository. Each national database contains different data that relates to those NETPs, which are registered for the respective MSID. The complete history must be kept in the national database for five years from the date of the change, but the actual registration information is kept whilst the taxable person is registered for the scheme (and five years following deregistration).

The following exclusion reasons relevant for this sub-process are defined in [R03], Annex, Section 1A (the number represents the exclusion code):

XCLUSION

The minimum duration of the NETP’s voluntary exclusion is defined in [CIR11/282], Art. 57h as follows:

“Where a taxable person ceases using a special scheme [as a result of voluntarily leaving the scheme], he shall be excluded from using that scheme in any Member State for two calendar quarters from the date of cessation.”

The CIR [R03] defines also the data elements to be exchanged between the MSs:

The VAT number allocated by the MSID;

The date of the exclusion;

A code for the reason for the exclusion, i.e. code 5.

MSID

This exclusion type applies only in the Union scheme. It concerns two scenarios:

1. The NETP has not established his business in the Union but has more than one fixed establishment there. The NETP chooses one of the MS in which he has a fixed establishment as the MSID. The NETP then ceases to have a fixed establishment in that MS, and to continue to use the special scheme must change his MSID to another MS in which he has a fixed establishment.

2. The NETP has established his business in the Union and moves the place of establishment from one MS to another. To continue to use the special scheme, the NETP must change the MSID.

“The taxable person shall inform both relevant Member States simultaneously of the change of Member State of identification […] no later than the tenth day of the month following the change of establishment.”, [CIR11/282], Art. 57c. Practically, the message used to communicate the exclusion of an NETP from a special scheme shall also be used to communicate the fact that an MSID has changed the MSID. The CIR [R03] defines the data elements to be exchanged between the MSs:

The VAT number allocated by the MSID;

The date of the exclusion, which is the date that that the NETP ceases to have a fixed establishment in the MSID or changes its place of business;

A code for the reason for the exclusion, i.e. code 6

Note that simultaneously with requesting exclusion in the former MSID, the NETP must provide the registration information to the new MSID, following the process described in section 5.6.

The exclusion shall be effective as from the first day of the calendar quarter following the day on which the decision on exclusion is made available by electronic means to the NETP; however, where the exclusion is caused by a change in the taxable persons business structure with the effect that the

(31)

taxable person no longer fulfils the conditions to use the scheme, the exclusion shall apply as from the date of the changed business structure.

The change of MSID shall apply as from the date that the NETP ceases to have a fixed establishment in the MS previously indicated as the MSID or changes the place where his business is established.

5.8.3 S

TORAGE

The storage in the national database is described in [REG10/904], Art. 17.1.d. The information shall be stored « without delay », [REG10/904], Art. 20. The information must be stored in the national database in order to send it to the other MSs.

If the MSID takes the approach of transmitting the registrations to Other MS in a monthly batch, a special case can happen, when the NETP registers and voluntary excludes itself from the scheme within the same month. In this case, the monthly batch will contain both registration and exclusion records.

It is important to note that there is no central registration repository. Each national database contains different data that relates to those NETP’s, which are registered for the respective MSID. The full history should be kept in the database for five years from the date of the change, but the actual registration information is kept whilst the taxable person is registered for the scheme (and five years following deregistration).

(32)

6 XML SCHEMA

The XML schema describes the information exchanged between the MSID and the Other MSs.

The notation used is described in section 9.4 Data Model notations.

6.1 V ERSIONING

The usual versioning mechanism for the XML schema is proposed, which is:

• The root element of the XML schema has its version attribute set to the actual version number of the schema, including its major and minor version numbers. The minor number is incremented whenever a change is made to the schema that is compatible with existing XML documents built with the previous schema version.

• The major version number is modified only when a schema modification is incompatible with XML documents built according to the rules of the previous schema version. As each namespace name includes the major version number of the elements it defines, existing XML instance documents have to be validated against the XML schema used to build these documents while new documents have to be validated against the new release of the schema.

6.2 F ISCALIS M ESSAGE

The overall structure of the message follows the design used in other trans-European systems sponsored by DG TAXUD, for example VAT Refund. Figure 7 depicts the overall structure, which consists of a Header part and a Body part.

Figure 7: XML Schema definition - FiscalisMessage

(33)

6.3 D ETAIL OF THE HEADER

The usual header is reused, as depicted on the following figure.

Figure 8: XML Schema definition - Header The Header contains the following elements:

• The OriginatingCountry element contains the ISO-3166 alpha-2 country code of the sender of the message (except for Greece, which uses “EL”);

• The DestinationCountries element must contain a list of two letter ISO-3166 alpha-2 country codes (except for Greece, which uses “EL”), of the intended recipients of the message. At least one country code must be present:

o For the case of the registration information the sender transmits an identical message to all MS, thus the DestinationCountries element must list all MS codes except the sender;

o All other messages are specific to one recipient and the sender must provide only the recipient MS code.

• The MessageId element contains an identifier for the message. This is limited to a maximum of 64 characters. The following characters are allowed: from a to z, from A to Z, from 0 to 9, minus (-), underscore (_), double point (:), at-sign (@) and the dot (.). The sender must ensure that the MessageId is unique for the lifetime of the system;

• An optional CorrelationId allowing correlating this message with another. This is typically used in the request-response paradigm to relate the response to the request putting the request message ID in the response correlation ID. In the context of the registration process it will be used to implement Article 17 of [REG10/904] to correlate a reply with the associated request;

• A Timestamp for the message that must be set to the time the message was created. The lexical representation of xs:dateTime is YYYY-MM-DDThh:mm:ss, where:

o YYYY the year, MM the month and DD the day;

o hh represents the hour, mm the minute, and ss the second (fractions of a second are optional);

o The letter “T” separates the date and time parts;

o The time is based on a 24-hour period, so hours are represented from 00 to 23;

(34)

o To specify the time zone, a “Z” can be added behind the time to mention that the dateTime is in UTC. An offset from the UTC time can be specified by adding a positive or negative time.

• An optional ResponseRequired. It is an indication about a response delay: a cut-off date for the response can be mentioned. This parameter is not relevant for the current system and must always be omitted;

• An optional Language. It is an indication about the language of the message. This element will not be used in this context as each free text element has a dedicated language code attribute.

6.4 D ETAIL OF THE BODY

The body is abstract: a concrete body must be defined for each implementation of the FiscalisMessage.

Figure 9: XML Schema definition - Body

The mandatory applicationId attribute of the body identifies the system the message belongs to and permits, for example, a generic dispatching application to process the message without parsing the entire message body.

Table 13 defines two values for the applicationId, according to the special scheme.

Scheme applicationID

Union Scheme M1SS

Non-Union Scheme VOES

Table 13: XML Schema Definition – valid values of applicationId per special scheme The direct consequence of this is that a message cannot contain both Union Scheme and Non-Union Scheme information. The message flows must be distinct, allowing the MS to have two distinct implementations at national level.

6.5 R EGISTRATION

Figure 10 depicts the RegistrationsInformation element, which provides the concrete message body for the FiscalisMessage for all exchanges of registration information.

(35)

Figure 10: XML Schema Definition – RegistrationsInformation The body contains a choice of three elements:

• The first choice, a sequence of Registrations and Exclusions, contain the new registrations for and exclusions from the special scheme recorded by the MSID during the period, which must be disseminated to all other MS;

• The second choice, RegistrationDetailsRequest, contains a request for registration information;

• The third choice, RequestedRegistrationDetails, contains the response to a request for registration information.

The constraints ensure that the NETP identified in the Registrations or Exclusions elements are unique.

The TraderID part uniquely identifies the NETP. This information cannot change during the lifetime of the system. Section 6.5.1.1.1 further expands this part.

The RegistrationDetail part contains information about the NETP and its involvement in the special scheme. Section 6.5.1.1.2 further expands this part.

6.5.1.1.1 TraderID

Figure 12 depicts the TraderID_Type. This data structure uniquely identifies an NETP. It consists of a choice from two parts – the EUTraderId, defining an EU NETP, and the VoesNumber, defining a Non-EU NETP. Table 14 describes the elements and attributes.

Technically, it is possible for a message in the Union Scheme to contain VoesNumber, and for a message in the Non-Union Scheme to contain EUTraderId but this must not occur.

The XML schema re-uses the TraderID_Type wherever an NETP must be identified, for example in requests for registration information.
