Hi,
I am not understanding this new change to the law regarding: Distance selling of products subject to excise duty to Finland.
In Vero https://www.vero.fi/en/individuals/tax-cards-and-tax-returns/arriving_in_finland/bringing-alcohol-and-tobacco-to-finland/ordering-alcohol-from-abroad/ it says this „Starting 1 September 2024: If the distance seller has not filed an advance notice on your order at the Tax Administration and the seller has not paid a guarantee corresponding to the amount of excise duties on the products you ordered, you are responsible for the duties together with the seller. However, you do not need to file any excise duty returns. The Tax Administration will send both you and the seller tax decisions with identical contents. Pay the excise duties according to the tax decision you receive.”
Going to the actual instruction: https://www.vero.fi/en/detailed-guidance/guidance/84432/distance-selling-of-products-subject-to-excise-duty-to-finland/ it does not say anything of the above text.
Does anybody know how it now actually works?
