NEW REGULATION AND FTP APP
Since 2019, a European Commission regulation has mandated that all EU countries adopt new customs and taxation practices by no later than 2023.
This change is significant compared to the past, as it now requires the collection of value-added tax for all purchases under 22 euros, payment of customs duties for purchases over 150 euros and the submission of a customs declaration. These changes will add additional burden on national Customs and Tax authorities.
OUR MISSION AND GOAL
Is to be the first in the market and the preferred solution to all EU countries. When we are talking about technology trends, we have seen a clear need of an intelligent APP that will fasten the buying process especially in the EU area.
Our goal is also to be a pioneer in bringing artificial intelligence functions into the purchase process, as a result of which all parties will get a safer, faster and easier way to complete online purchases around the world.
