New form for VAT returns

From 1 January 2009, a new form shall be valid (No. 25 5401 MFin 5401, sample No. 15) for value added tax returns. The new form, in comparison with the existing four-page form, only has two pages. Services rendered outside the Czech Republic shall newly be monitored and reported separately. Besides renumbering individual lines in the tax return, the form includes new lines in connection with the most recent amendments to the VAT Act. The form is to be first used for the taxation period of January 2009 or first quarter of 2009.
