Overview & methodology

What is Intrastat?
Intrastat is the system for collecting statistics on the trade in goods between EU member states. In 2026, businesses exceeding specific annual thresholds for 'Arrivals' (imports from EU) or 'Dispatches' (exports to EU) must submit monthly statistical declarations.

Numerical Example: Germany Reporting Check

Germany raised its thresholds from 1 January 2025: arrivals €3,000,000 (was €800,000) and dispatches €1,000,000 (was €500,000), per Destatis. Thresholds vary widely by member state, so check each country you trade with.

Legal basis: Intrastat is governed by Regulation (EU) 2019/2152 on European business statistics and Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2020/1197. The older Regulation (EC) No 638/2004 was repealed from 1 January 2022. Each member state sets its own exemption thresholds.

Frequently asked questions

What is Intrastat?

Intrastat is the EU statistical reporting system for intra-EU trade. Companies must declare the value and nature of goods dispatched to other EU states (exports) and received from them (arrivals) if they exceed member-state thresholds. Thresholds vary by country; declarations are monthly or quarterly.

What are 'arrivals' and 'dispatches' thresholds?

Arrivals = goods imported into the EU from another member state. Dispatches = goods exported out of the EU to another member state. Each member state sets separate thresholds (e.g., Germany: €500k arrivals, €500k dispatches). Exceeding either threshold requires Intrastat reporting.

What happens if I exceed the threshold?

You must file an Intrastat declaration listing products, values, and origin/destination. Failure to report is a compliance violation and may result in fines. Some countries waive reporting if you stay below both thresholds; check your member state's rules.
