ROI Registration: get your intra-Community VAT number (VIES)

We prepare the application the way the Tax Agency will read it, with proof of activity front and center, so the registration doesn't die in a request for further information.

Registration in the Register of Intra-Community Operators is not automatic: the Tax Agency verifies that real business activity exists and that intra-Community transactions are planned before activating your VAT number in VIES, and it turns down a significant share of applications that arrive with just Form 036 and nothing else. We first review your tax registration status, file Form 036 together with an explanatory statement and supporting documentation, and follow the case through to the end. If the Tax Agency issues a request for further information regarding the application, its review and response are included in the price, VAT included.

✓Prior review of your tax registration status
✓Form 036 with the ROI registration request
✓Explanatory statement of the activity and planned transactions
✓Supporting documentation organized and filed
✓Response to a Tax Agency request for further information included
✓Final check of your VAT number in VIES

Frequently asked questions

Is ROI registration automatic when filing Form 036?−
No. The application opens a procedure in which the Tax Agency can approve the registration, deny it, or ask you for more documentation. If three months pass without a response, the regulations allow the assignment of the VAT number to be deemed denied, so silence doesn't work in your favor either. That's why the application must be filed already accompanied by proof of activity.
Why does the Tax Agency deny so many ROI registrations?+
The most common reason is failing to prove real economic activity or specific intra-Community transactions: a Form 036 checked off without an accompanying statement or documentation invites denial. Tax registration inconsistencies also weigh heavily, such as a business classification code that doesn't match the described activity or a registered address with no actual resources. Our prior review exists to eliminate those issues.
What is a site visit and how do I prepare for it?+
The Tax Agency may send a tax officer to the business address to verify that it truly exists: premises, signage, resources, staff. This is common in ROI applications, and many denials stem from a visit where no one was present or no one could explain the activity. We warn you about this possibility from day one and make sure you're prepared to handle it.
Can I invoice European clients without VAT while the application is being processed?+
It's not advisable. Until your VAT number appears active in VIES, your European client cannot validate the transaction as intra-Community, and they will typically hold the order or require an invoice with VAT. Plan the registration before committing to the first transaction.
What happens if the Tax Agency sends me a request for further information?+
It's covered by the service: reviewing and responding to a request related to the application is included in the price. The usual deadline to respond is 10 business days, so as soon as you receive it, forward it to us and we'll put together the response with the documentation the Tax Agency is actually requesting.
What exactly does the price include?+
From €395, VAT included: prior tax registration review, preparation and filing of Form 036, explanatory statement of the activity, organization of supporting documentation, follow-up through to registration, denial, or request for information, response to one Tax Agency request for further information, and a final check of your VAT number in VIES.
Do documents signed online have the same validity as those signed in person?+
Exactly the same. Law 11/2023 recognises the full legal validity of notarial documents executed by video call with a qualified electronic signature before a registered notary.
Do I need a digital certificate?+
Yes, to sign electronically you need a digital certificate or an electronic DNI. If you do not have one, we help you obtain it quickly before your appointment, with no additional handling fee.
Can I do it from abroad?+
Yes, the notarial video call works from any country. You only need a stable connection, your valid identity document and a digital certificate.
How much does this service cost?+
The quote includes the official notarial fees set by the Notarial Association plus our handling, fixed before you start and with no hidden costs. Request it with no obligation via WhatsApp or the form.
What if I have questions during the process?+
Our team supports you from start to finish via WhatsApp, phone or email, and the notary answers all your legal questions before signing.
