NN - nature of VAT

The NN byte identifies the legal reason a line is not taxed at the usual VAT rate, and drives the vatExemptionCategory reported to myDATA. Use it on lines that carry no VAT — that is, with the V nibble set to 7 (Zero VAT rate) or 8 (Not Taxable) and VATRate 0. Whenever NN is anything other than 00, the line is transmitted to myDATA with vatCategory 7 (Άνευ ΦΠΑ) and vatAmount 0, together with the exemption category from the table below.

Goods, and directly related services, supplied to a business that will subsequently export the goods or dispatch them to another Member State. Exempted up front against an exemption certificate, so the customer does not have to pay VAT and reclaim it later.26

VAT-included regimes

Natures 31, 36, 41 and 42 (myDATA categories 20, 21, 22, 23) are ΦΠΑ εμπεριεχόμενοςVAT included rather than no VAT. The VAT is due but embedded in the price, so it is not shown separately on the line. Send the price the customer actually pays as the charge item Amount.

Article references above follow the current VAT Code (ν. 5144/2024), which renumbered the articles of the former ν. 2859/2000. The vatExemptionCategory numbers themselves are unchanged.

Values not listed above are not supported and are rejected by the Middleware. myDATA additionally defines categories 5 (Article 21), 17 (Article 47) and 24 (Article 8), which have no NN value: Article 21 governs the time of the chargeable event rather than an exemption, and the remaining two are not yet mapped. Where one of these is genuinely required, set it directly through ftChargeItemCaseData.GR.mydataoverride.invoiceDetails.vatExemptionCategory.
