Desucla Limited

Desucla Limited is a UK-headquartered company, incorporated on July 1, 2019, that specializes in fiscal representation and cross-border tax payment services. It was founded by entrepreneurs with backgrounds in tax and technology, including Richard Baxter, a Chartered Tax Adviser who was formerly head of indirect tax at Arthur Andersen UK and head of indirect tax technology at Deloitte. The company was established to address the complexities of fiscal representation for non-resident merchants, a need amplified by events like Brexit and increased VAT compliance from online marketplaces.

The firm operates as a technology-first company, utilizing a proprietary online platform to provide its services. This platform enables clients to manage VAT documentation, add representations for new countries, handle global VAT payments in multiple currencies, and access compliance guides. Desucla’s core business is to act as a fiscal representative for merchants and assist with their VAT payments to tax authorities across more than 35 countries. The company's technology and risk management systems are designed to minimize the need for costly bank guarantees or cash deposits, making global representation more accessible and cost-effective.

Desucla serves a wide range of clients, from individual online sellers to large multi-national companies, as well as advisors and compliance providers. Its key services include fiscal representation, Import One Stop Shop (IOSS) intermediary services for B2C packages under €150, One Stop Shop (OSS) for intra-EU sales, and customs support through its TradeFlow services. The 'TaxPay' service allows clients to settle international tax liabilities in their local currency through a single online platform. The business model focuses on simplifying international trade compliance, generating revenue by providing these representation and payment services through its integrated platform.
