How the DGT's position on this topic has evolved, and the rulings it rests on.

How the DGT's position has evolved

Settled doctrine High confidence 42 rulings · 2014–2025

Current position

Obligated parties must report in Form 347 transactions with third parties that exceed 3,005.06 euros annually, provided they involve business or professional activities. Transactions that are already reported through other declarations with coinciding content and those that do not require the issuance of an invoice under specific regulations are excluded. Likewise, pure export transactions and income from employment are not subject to this reporting obligation.

The DGT's position remains constant in the application of the exclusions provided for in the Regulations. The doctrine has progressively specified the cases of exclusion, such as the duplication of information with other forms or the nature of transactions that do not require an invoice. No change in criterion is observed, but rather a systematic application of regulatory exemptions to specific cases.

Turning points

  1. V0204-15

    Establishes that to avoid duplication of information, transactions already declared in forms with coinciding content are excluded from Form 347.

  2. V4727-16

    Clarifies that the obligation to report acquisitions of goods persists even if the transactions are not subject to IVA (Value Added Tax).
