When creating a special prepayment period, it is necessary to select a copy period regarding the master data. This does not apply to the existing companies Ideally, this should be the closed December - VA period. The stored companies are not copied from this period. The VAT@GTC automatically checks the entire year, which companies have passed, and considers them for the special prepayment period (especially important, if companies belonged to the VAT group for a period of less than a year). |
As with a monthly/quarterly VAT return period, the status reflects the steps from the creation of the VAT return to its submission to the tax office. These steps are explained in more detail in the following chapters.

Declaration
This dialogue shows the special prepayment form. It is especially important to select the corresponding company. To offset the special prepayment amount (e.g. with a refund amount from a previous month) or if the refund amount has been assigned, a 1 has to be entered in field 29 of the VAT@GTC form.

If a taxpayer wants to make further statements or deviating statements from those in the tax return, or if any further facts have to be clarified, a 1 has to be entered in field 23 of the VAT@GTC form.

Manual filling of the special prepayment
The amount can be entered manually in line 24 of the VAT@GTC form. This can be done, for example, if the previous year has not yet been created in the VAT@GTC.

A manual entry requires a meaningful comment. If the entry is confirmed by the [Plus sign 
], the amount to be paid to the tax office will be calculated automatically. Please mind selecting the shortest reporting period in the form. If [Quarter] is selected, the VAT@GTC sets the amount to be paid to 0. - €, regardless of the total.
Automatic calculation by the VAT@GTC
The form can be filled automatically by clicking the [Import SVZ values] button. The following will happen in the background:
...
- If the company is a quarterly payer, the payment is automatically 0. - €
- If the total of the tax payable/refunds results in a refund, the payment is 0. - €
- If the company did not hold the full 12 months, the system increases the existing amounts to the sum for the entire year and divides it by 11 for a monthly payer
