Support for partial VAT recoverability

With this release, AvaTax provides support for partial VAT recoverability on purchase transactions.

With this update, effective November 1, 2024, the partial VAT recoverability will be supported for the U.K., Northern Island, and 27 EU member states. For the remaining jurisdictions, other than the U.S., AvaTax will return 100% recoverability.

The following fields are added to the Purchase invoice document type for partial input VAT recoverability:

  • Recoverable: Displays the amount of input tax that can be recovered.
  • Non-recoverable: Displays the amount of tax that can’t be recovered.
  • Recoverable %: Displays the percentage of tax that can be recovered in the specific tax jurisdiction based on the tax provisions.

With this update, we have provided support to customize the recoverability percentage based on your business requirements. To set a customized recoverability percentage on your purchase transactions, you can set the Recoverability percentage field in the Find and Replace Before Calculation advanced rule supported by AvaTax. For more information, see Partial VAT recoverability.
