Simplify EU VAT Compliance with Hurricane

IOSS relies on accurate product classification, shipment values and trade data being applied consistently before goods enter the EU.

Without early validation, organisations face declaration errors, rejected shipments and increased manual rework.

Hurricane provides the trade intelligence required to support compliant IOSS processing without adding operational complexity or replacing existing intermediaries.

IOSS Data Support

Hurricane does not act as an IOSS intermediary or tax agent.
Instead, it delivers the validated data required to support compliant IOSS declarations.

Solutions | Scalability & Customisation

Hurricane supports IOSS workflows by providing:

  • Accurate HS code classification
  • Validated product descriptions
  • Shipment value checks against IOSS thresholds
  • Duty and tax calculation inputs
  • Structured, validated data for downstream IOSS reporting

This enables organisations to work confidently with their chosen IOSS intermediaries and technology partners.

Supporting Modern EU Import Controls

IOSS operates alongside wider EU import data and security regimes, including ICS2.

Solutions | Scalability & Customisation

Inconsistent data across these regimes increases the risk of:

  • Shipment delays
  • Declaration rejection
  • Network disruption
  • Poor customer experience

Hurricane helps align IOSS-related data with broader EU import requirements, ensuring consistency across submissions.

Data Quality and Commercial Impact

Accurate IOSS-ready data enables organisations to:
