As of the end of August 2025, all entities identified for VAT purposes in Slovenia, whether located locally or abroad, will face new obligations under updated tax reporting rules. Two new records must be kept and submitted to the Financial Administration of the Republic of Slovenia (FURS) on a regular basis:
Record of VAT charged
Recording of VAT deductions
These changes represent a significant step towards the digitization of tax reporting and aim to improve transparency and compliance for all VAT-registered businesses.
Who must comply?
The requirement applies to all taxpayers identified for VAT in Slovenia, regardless of where they are based. This includes atypical taxpayers, such as private landlords or individuals who provide services through platforms such as Booking.com. Even if they are not regular VAT payers, they must register as “atypical taxpayers” and report transactions involving VAT, especially when paying commissions to foreign service providers.
Important deadlines
For businesses with a monthly VAT period, the first submission is due by August 31, 2025.
For quarterly VAT payers, the deadline is October 31, 2025.
If a taxpayer submits records of issued and received invoices to FURS at least three business days before the VAT return deadline, FURS will automatically prepare a pre-filled VAT return for confirmation. If this pre-filled return is not received, the taxpayer must ensure that the VAT return is filed and paid on time.
What should the records contain?
The record of VAT chargedmust include:
Details of taxable supplies
Exempt supplies, both with and without right to deduct
Reverse charge transactions
Distance sales and services within the EU
Import VAT
Taxpayer name, address and VAT identification number
Invoice numbers, dates and values excluding VAT
The record of VAT deductionsmust include:
Purchases of goods and services in Slovenia
Import and intra-EU purchases subject to VAT in Slovenia
Deductible and non-deductible VAT amounts
Supplier name, address, invoice number and VAT number
Each invoice must be recorded separately. If the invoice number is unclear or missing, the taxpayer must request a corrected copy from the supplier. Without a valid invoice number, submission is not possible.
How are the records submitted?
Both sets of records must be submitted electronically to FURS. Manual submission via G2B platform eDavki forms will not be supported. There will be three ways to submit data:
Through compatible accounting platforms
Through authorized third-party service providers
Through a direct software interface
Support for business proffesionals, entrepreneurs, companies and corporations
