Setting the Tax Registration Number for Your Spanish Subsidiary
You need a tax registration number, which is a numerical ID, to handle any procedures with the Spanish Tax Administration Agency. Therefore, you're required to fill the Tax Reg. Number field for your subsidiary. This allows you to generate Spain VAT reports in the Spain Localization SuiteApp. To be compliant, you can enter either of the two following values for the tax registration number:
-
VAT number
-
NIF (Tax Identification Number)
To set the tax registration number for your subsidiary:
-
Go to Setup > Company > Subsidiaries.
-
From the list, click on the subsidiary, for which you want to set the tax registration number.
-
On the Subsidiary page, click Edit.
-
On the Tax Registrations subtab, click on the alphanumeric value under Tax Reg. Number table column header. Clicking activates the editing mode of the table and allows you to enter the NIF/VAT number value.
-
Fill in a valid NIF/VAT number that contains at least 9 alphanumeric characters. The system applies the following logic when sourcing the number for a report generation:
-
If the number has an ES prefix matching the associated Country field, the system omits it.
-
If the number has a different prefix or doesn't have a prefix, the system sources the whole value.
Note:Make sure you check the start day of your tax registration number's validity. It should start on the first day of a quarter for quarterly reports, or on the first day of a month for monthly reports.

-
Click OK.
-
Click Save.
If there are multiple valid tax registration numbers for your chosen report period, the system uses the latest valid number. You can also change your tax registration number's validity on the Subsidiary page.
