Tax reporting
80+
=============
81+
82+
In Luxembourg, companies must submit a VAT declaration on a monthly, quarterly, or annual basis to
83+
the tax office, depending on their turnover. Companies that submit a monthly or quarterly
84+
declaration are also required to submit the annual declaration.
85+
86+
Both monthly/quarterly and annual VAT declarations can be exported as XML files to upload on the
87+
:abbr:`eCDF platform (plateforme électronique de Collecte des Données Financières)`.
88+

207+
Go to :menuselection:`Accounting --> Reporting --> Tax Report`.
208+
209+
In the :icon:`fa-book` :guilabel:`Report` selector, select :guilabel:`Annual VAT Declaration (LU)`.
210+
211+
In the :icon:`fa-calendar` (:guilabel:`Period`) selector, choose the fiscal year dates for which to
212+
generate the declaration.
213+
214+
Completing the declaration
215+
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
216+
217+
The annual declaration contains five sections labelled I to V, seven appendices labelled A to G, and
218+
an additional Appendix to Operational Expenditures.
219+
220+
Sections I and III, and Appendix A can be pre-populated automatically based on the :ref:`account tag
221+
configuration <luxembourg/account-tag-configuration>`. After configuring the account tags,
222+
:ref:`set the tax lock date <tax-returns/lock-date>` to the end of the fiscal year. This will
223+
trigger the pre-computation of those values.
