Tax reporting
84+
=============
85+
86+
In Luxembourg, companies must submit a VAT declaration on a monthly, quarterly, or annual basis to
87+
the tax office, depending on their turnover. Companies that submit a monthly or quarterly
88+
declaration are also required to submit the annual declaration.
89+
90+
Both monthly/quarterly and annual VAT declarations can be exported as XML files to upload on the
91+
:abbr:`eCDF platform (plateforme électronique de Collecte des Données Financières)`.

If you sold to customers under a VAT exemption for SMEs during the period, you need to manually
106+
enter the value of such sales in the editable fields at section I, items 481 and 482. To find the

62-
To do so, go to :menuselection:`Accounting --> Report --> Luxembourg --> Annual Tax Report`, click
63-
on :guilabel:`Create`, then define the annual period in the :guilabel:`Year` field.
109+
- Go to :menuselection:`Accounting --> Reporting --> Partner Ledger`.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
210+
211+
Go to :menuselection:`Accounting --> Reporting --> Tax Report`.
212+
213+
In the :icon:`fa-book` :guilabel:`Report` selector, select :guilabel:`Annual VAT Declaration (LU)`.
214+
215+
In the :icon:`fa-calendar` (:guilabel:`Period`) selector, choose the fiscal year dates for which to
216+
generate the declaration.
217+
218+
Completing the declaration
219+
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
220+
221+
The annual declaration contains five sections labelled I to V, seven appendices labelled A to G, and
222+
an additional Appendix to Operational Expenditures.
223+
224+
Sections I, III, and Appendix A can be pre-populated automatically based on the :ref:`account tag
225+
configuration <luxembourg/account-tag-configuration>`. After configuring the account tags,
226+
:ref:`set the tax lock date <tax-returns/lock-date>` to the end of the fiscal year. This will
227+
trigger the pre-computation of those values.
