Applying for a refund of VAT paid abroad (accountant or representatives)

Businesses using a representative to apply for a VAT refund must select this representative in E-tax for businesses. When you have an SE/CVR number, the process is as follows:

1. Click the link to Apply for a VAT refund
2. 'Tilmeld til revisorordning' (Register for accountant scheme), if you are not already registered
3. 'Tilmeld momsrefusion' (Register for a VAT refund), if you are not already registered

The deadline for applying for a refund is 30 September the year after you have bought the goods or services. This means, for example, that the deadline for applying for a refund for purchases made during 2018 was missed on 30 September 2019.

If you need to apply for a VAT refund on behalf of Danish businesses, you must register in E-tax for businesses as VAT refund representative by registering for the accountant scheme (only available in Danish). When you have registered for the accountant scheme, you can apply for a VAT refund for your clients.

Businesses using a representative to apply for a VAT refund must select this representative in E-tax for businesses. You must ask the business for which you are applying for a VAT refund to select you as a representative, before you can select the business among the clients that you can apply for.

The business on whose behalf a VAT refund is applied for must have an E-tax password or NemID to be able to use the self-service system E-tax for businesses (TastSelv Erhverv).
