Help Portal Documentation (KW Documentation)
In Czech Republic, you are required to submit the advance vat returns statement for each period in
an electronic form to the tax authorities. To generate the VAT returns, you use the Advance Return
for Tax on Sales/Purchases (RFUMSV00) report with the DMEE format CZ_EVAT_RET_XML.
For more information, refer the system documentation for this format.
Integration
When you execute the Advance Return for Tax on Sales and Purchases (RFUMSV00) report, the
system automatically fills the FOTV tables with the tax base information. When you execute
transaction FOTV for any company code under country key CZ, the system enables you to
generate the advance tax return XML file in electronic form.

Features
The VAT return statement generated for a period contains details of taxes on all sales and
th
purchases carried out by a company and have to be submitted before the 25 day following the end
of each period covered by VAT return. The generated XML file needs to be uploaded using
electronic VAT return services in the Czech tax administration website.
You can use this report to generate the correction VAT return or the additional VAT returns in case
of any errors in the previously filed VAT return statement. FOTV only contains the last statement
created for given period. The regular statement for a month will therefore be overwritten by if an
additional return statement is created for the same period.
