You can use EDIVAT to complete electronic tax declarations in Belgium. You must submit an electronic VAT declaration on a monthly or quarterly basis to the Belgian government if your company uses EDIVAT for VAT declarations. The data that is used for the EDIVAT declaration is based on the data for typical sales tax reporting.

Use the EDIVAT setup form to create the segments and elements to use in the electronic sales tax declarations. An EDI file is used to transfer tax declarations from the company to the tax authorities and is made up of segments and elements. Each segment has a name, number, and element where the value must be used.

1. Click General ledger> Setup> Sales tax> External> EDIVAT setup .

2. For each EDI segment, enter the following information:

   • Segment number

   • Segment name

   • Element

   • Description
