Hello everyone,I sell used items on eBay under the margin scheme in accordance with Section 25a of the German VAT Act.Previously, because of EU sales, I had the OSS confirmation enabled. Now I have switched my account to Section 25a, removed the OSS confirmation, and added the note about margin taxation to my listings.Even so, I still receive automatic messages from eBay regarding OSS and cross-border sales within the EU.Has anyone had similar experiences with Section 25a and OSS on eBay?Does OSS need to stay activated when using the margin scheme or not?Thanks a lot!
