Institute of the payer's unreliability

Update: 03.03.2022

Functionality includes system checks that alert users to unreliable VAT payers when processing documents. It also includes checks whether the used bank account of the partner is registered for business in the Slovak Republic according to Act 222/2004 Coll.

The list of entities for which there are reasons for cancellation of VAT registration is available on the website of the Financial Administration. To automate the download, the customer needs to register on the OpenData FS API portal.

The automated task then searches for vendors and customers registered in the system in the records of the Tax Administration of the Slovak Republic, creates its own records (the so-called Unreliable Payer Entries) and then performs checks against them when processing documents.

A company that is not listed and has at least one published bank account for doing business in Slovakia is designated as reliable.

Note

Checking the unreliability of the VAT payer in the case of customers is limited to a check on the Payment Order only

Verification of a new supplier

There may be scenarios where an immediate check of the unreliability of a payer is required. For these cases, use the VAT Unreliability Check action on the Supplier tab page.

Purchase document

The VAT unreliability check is performed when a supplier (or creditor number) is entered or changed on a purchase document. The user will then receive a notification on the document.

When the Issue action is triggered, the bank account is checked on the Payment Details tab to see if it is in the list of accounts published by the supplier for doing business in Slovakia.

Payment order

Warning

This check will be performed automatically on the Issue Not Allowed action if any of the lines do not pass the check.
