Italian Ebay Business

Fred2875 · #1 10-16-2022

Hi at all !

I'm new on this forum , i sell on ebay in dropshipping.
I have been selling in dropshipping for about 1 year and have had this ebay account for at least 10 years, but I would like to somehow increase my revenue by publishing over my limit of 360 ads per month, but I need a VAT number.
In Italy the taxes to be paid to open a VAT number are insane, and I'm not going to do that.
That you know is it possible to find the data of some VAT registration certificate and build the stealth account on it?.
I see various sellers here on the forum but none selling business accounts with limits to 10000 items in the EU.
alternatively I open more stealth accounts, but the process is very long before I can sell 3/500 products through AutoDS.

thanks a lot

VAT number details must match personal details on ebay account. it is not really a good idea to take someone else's VAT number but if you do so you will have to take their personal details as well incl. codice fiscale and ID

I might help, but how are you going to collect the payments?

I collect payment with an italian bank named FLOWE that can receive fund in other name .

HI Fred, it's awesome that you have a grandfather account.

My suggestion is to open additional accounts so you don't overload this account and work with extra accounts to increase your sales and revenue.

This also minimizes the risk of your main account getting suspended.

Using someone else's VAT information to create an account is illegal and could lead to serious problems with the law. It's also against eBay's rules.
