Apply for an IOSS Number from Switzerland – Seamlessly Access the EU Market with SWISS COMPANY AG

What is an IOSS Number?

The Import One-Stop Shop (IOSS) number is a digital tax identification system introduced by the European Union in July 2021 as part of its VAT reform. It is designed for non-EU businesses—such as those based in Switzerland—that sell goods valued under €150 to private consumers within the EU.

With an IOSS number, you can report and remit VAT on all your EU sales through one central platform, improving customer satisfaction by removing hidden fees and customs delays.

SWISS COMPANY AG simplifies the entire process of obtaining your IOSS number—so you can focus on growing your e-commerce business.

Why is the IOSS Number Important for Swiss Businesses?

E-commerce is booming—and the EU is a key market for Swiss online retailers. Having an IOSS number offers significant advantages:

  • Centralized VAT filing for all EU countries
  • No customs charges or import VAT for your EU customers
  • Faster delivery times and fewer returns
  • Regulatory compliance across all EU member states
  • Improved competitiveness against international sellers

Who Needs an IOSS Number?

You need an IOSS number if your business:
  • Is based in Switzerland or another non-EU country

  • Sells goods online to private consumers (B2C) in the European Union

  • Ships goods valued at €150 or less per package

  • Sends goods directly from Switzerland or a third country into the EU

  • Operates via platforms like Amazon, Shopify, WooCommerce, Etsy, or a custom web store
