VAT One Stop Shop for non-Danish businesses

This is how you log on to the E-tax portal

1. You need an E-tax password. If you don't have one, you start by ordering one. See Order an E-tax password above on this page.
   • You must use your customer number as ID. The password will be sent by letter to your non-Danish address.
2. When you receive the password, you activate it using the information in the letter.
3. When the password is activated, you click on 'Log on'.
4. When the password is used, you have to enable 2-factor authentication.
5. Click 'Send new activation code' - the code will be sent to the email you have specified in your OSS registration.
6. Click the link in the email you receive and type in the code from the email.
7. You now have to scan a QR code - if you don't have an authenticator app on your phone, please downloan one.
   • You're not required to use a certain app. You can choose any authenticator app you like.
8. Scan the QR code with your app.
9. On your screen you have to type in the code which is shown in the app
10. 2-factor authentication is now enabled and you can log on.

Two-factor authentication is a security system that requires two separate, distinct forms of identification in order to access something. 

You can read more about logging on to E-tax with two-factor authentication here.

When we receive your payment, it will be used to cover entries ready for payment in your account - that is, amounts which have exceeded their due dates. Entries are paid in chronological order according to the so-called FIFO principle (first in, first out).

You can read more about the FIFO principle and how we calculate your interest at Payments to your tax account.
