The Balkan state of Montenegro has increased its Value Added Tax registration threshold from €18,000 to €30,000 per annum. Check EU VAT registration thresholds via VAT Calc’s live tracker.
The rise in the level above which businesses providing taxable goods or services must register and start charging the 21% VAT rate is being introduced to support small businesses during the COVID crisis. A raised threshold means less micro traders being burdened with the invoicing and reporting bureaucracy, and well has helping them to keep prices lower as they establish themselves.
The new rule applies from 4 June 2021.
If you need to complete VAT returns, VAT Calc’s VAT Filer can correctly complete any country filings with verified VAT or GST transactional data from our VAT Calculator or VAT Auditor tools.
