Introduction

From Amazon source:

Amazon’s VAT Calculation Service (VCS) allows Sellers to show VAT exclusive prices to Business Customers and get the Downloadable VAT Invoice badge.
Customers prefer to purchase from Sellers with this badge it represents a guarantee of VAT invoice for each shipment.
Customers also have an option to filter out any Seller who does not have a Downloadable VAT Invoice badge.
Sellers in VCS have two options for invoicing. Sellers can either allow Amazon to create an invoice on their behalf or upload their own invoices. In both the options, Sellers will receive the Downloadable VAT Invoice badge, Amazon will show VAT exclusive prices to Customers and the invoices will be available for Customers to download from their account.
