I am located in the Canary Islands, Spain, which is part of the European Union's ULTRAPERIPHERAL TERRITORIES (UPT). We have a special fiscal status, and as per EU legislation, we are exempt from VAT (Value-Added Tax), as indicated here:
https://ec.europa.eu/taxation_customs/business/vat/eu-vat-rules-topic/territorial-status-eu-countrie....
Due to this special fiscal status, sellers and companies in the Canary Islands who are registered as taxable entities do not have a VAT number but instead hold a NIF and EORI number.
Therefore, I am unable to provide a VAT number.
I cannot comply with your request to "confirm the seller info you’ve shared with us, then update or add any missing details within the next 10 days, as legally required," because it is not applicable in this case.
I believe Etsy should manually verify the provided information, as reflected in the attached documents, for sellers like myself who are located in the Canary Islands.
Hi! May I ask you if this problem has been solved?
Noooo. They have closed 3 of my shops for VAT NUMBER missing-
You have to enter your NIF number in the "Additional taxpayer ID" section.
You can find this just below "Legal shop information" - Click "finances" > Legal & tax information
