Yeah, so from what I can tell, with the addition of Stripe App Marketplace, we have some addons that can handle the VAT issue. But I have not tested them yet. As for filing the taxes, you still mostly have to do that with your local government tax agency, but any sales below 40k€/year should not require having any branches in other EU countries

you cannot file VAT for foreign countries with your "your local government tax agency". you need to talk to foreign governments in weird languages. even registering with them can be a year-long nightmare. thats why i said its "impossible" for small companies.

Maybe we are talking about different things. Up to an amount you can do this: https://europa.eu/youreurope/business/taxation/vat/vat-digit...
