Dealer Status

Authorized Dealer:

• An authorized dealer is a local business in Israel that has an Israeli VAT ID.
• As an authorized dealer, AWS can issue tax invoices directly to you, allowing you to handle VAT matters according to local regulations.
• This status typically applies to businesses that are registered and authorized to collect VAT in Israel.

Non-Authorized Dealer:

• A non-authorized dealer does not have an Israeli VAT ID.
• In this case, you must provide your tax identification number (TIN) to AWS.
• AWS will issue a compliant tax invoice based on the provided TIN, ensuring the invoice meets local tax compliance requirements.

From the End Customer's View Signed Up Directly with AWS

For an end customer who has signed up directly with AWS, the dealer status will influence how AWS handles tax invoicing:

If the customer is an authorized dealer:

• The customer has provided their Israeli VAT ID.
• AWS will issue invoices that include VAT, as required by Israeli tax laws.
• The customer can reclaim the VAT according to local tax regulations, depending on their specific tax situation.

If the customer is a non-authorized dealer:

• The customer must provide their tax identification number (TIN).
• AWS will issue tax invoices compliant with the provided TIN.
• The customer may be responsible for self-assessing and paying VAT directly to the Israeli tax authorities, depending on the nature of their business and local tax rules.

Key Points for End Customers

• Compliance: Ensuring the correct dealer status and providing accurate tax information is crucial for compliance with local tax laws.
• Invoice Handling: Understanding your dealer status helps in managing invoices and any applicable VAT correctly.
• Tax Recovery: Depending on your status, you may have different methods of handling VAT recovery or payment.

Action Items for End Customers

• Verify Dealer Status: Determine whether you are an authorized or non-authorized dealer.
• Provide Necessary Information: Submit your Israeli VAT ID if you are an authorized dealer or your TIN if you are a non-authorized dealer.
• Consult Tax Professionals: It may be beneficial to consult with a tax advisor to ensure you are handling VAT correctly according to Israeli law and to optimize your tax compliance strategy.
