GetYourGuide requires specific tax-related information from you for legal and tax compliance and to ensure payment processes are secure. Here's a simplified breakdown of what you need to provide:
Provide your Legal Status
Indicate if you operate as an individual or a company. This determines the tax information you need to submit.
- As an individual, your personal and business finances are not separate. You will be required to share.
- As a company, your business is a distinct legal entity, typically requiring more documentation, like Articles of Association and a Company Registration Number (CRN).
CRN: This is a unique identifier assigned to your legally registered business. The format of this number varies by country, and you can find the specific format for your country on the Supplier Administration site.
For further details on Business and Individual Trader requirements, please refer to the article Required Business Information to Become a GetYourGuide Supply Partner and Receive Payments.
Provide your Tax Details
To ensure compliance with legal and tax regulations, GetYourGuide requires specific information about your tax status. This section outlines the formats and requirements for Tax Identification Numbers (TIN) and Value Added Tax (VAT) numbers, tailored to both individuals and companies.
TIN: The number provided by your local tax authority when you registered your business. Or if not registered as a business, your individual Tax Identification Number.
VAT: A VAT number is a tax identifier unique to each country. In many cases, it starts with a country code followed by a number sequence, but this format may vary depending on the country. It may or may not be the same as your Tax Identification Number (TIN), depending on local regulations. For businesses outside the EU, VAT equivalent identifiers may be known as Sales Tax, Goods and Services Tax (GST) or Harmonized Sales Tax (HST) with formats differing by country.
