VAT classification

eClear puts vat rates for the entire European Union and your entire product master data in your hands. It gives you access to a hand curated database that is updated continuously. eClear's VAT classification system is designed so that you can retrieve VAT rates immediately after you received your login credentials (VAT classification in 30 seconds) but the flow that most customers use is depicted in the following figure:

First, you create products. On product creation, an assignment, a link between your product and our product taxonomy, is automatically created. eClear then tries to match your product to our product taxonomy in a process called "auto-assignment". You can review the assignment and either approve it straight away or find another product class code. Finally, you can retrieve VAT rates for you assigned products.
