# Configuring Amazon VAT Calculation Service (VCS) - Amazon Marketplace Plus

## Introduction

Amazon’s VAT Calculation Service (VCS) allows sellers to:

* Display **VAT-exclusive prices** to business customers  
* Receive the **Downloadable VAT Invoice badge**  
* Increase customer trust and sales, as buyers can filter out sellers without this badge  

Sellers have two options:

1. Let **Amazon generate the invoices**
2. **Upload their own invoices** (also with the downloadable badge)

---

## Prerequisites

Register here to activate the VCS service:

## Methods

Two methods are available:

### Method 1: Amazon generates the invoices

During registration, select:  
**"I want Amazon to create invoices on my behalf."**
