For Danish venues

Built for Denmark’s 2026 age-based VAT rules.

Price and document relevant commercial instruction differently for clients under 30 and clients aged 30 or over—without turning the front desk into a tax spreadsheet.
  • Evidence-aware U30 treatment
  • Safe O30 fallback
  • VAT breakdowns and exports

What the current guidance says

From 1 January 2026, the Danish Tax Agency says relevant instruction supplied by commercial operators—including fitness, exercise, dance and yoga—must charge VAT when taxable annual turnover reaches DKK 50,000. Instruction for children and young people through age 29 is exempt, provided the supplier can document the participant’s full name, address and date of birth.

Guidance reviewed 31 August 2026. Recheck it with your accountant before release or configuration changes.

Read the current Danish Tax Agency guidance

From evidence to reporting

One age decision, carried through the workflow

The age-based path applies only when the venue country is Denmark, the venue is VAT-registered, the configured country profile enables the exemption, and the product is categorized for the relevant treatment.

Evidence-aware U30 treatment

Record full name, address and date of birth as the minimum age evidence described by the Danish Tax Agency. Under-30 treatment is applied only when the venue holds complete evidence.

Safe taxable fallback

Clients aged 30 or over, clients with unknown age, and otherwise eligible clients with incomplete evidence follow the taxable path rather than receiving an undocumented exemption.

Subscription threshold transitions

Freeze the relevant age threshold and taxable price context, then move a recurring membership to the taxable band from the applicable billing period when the client reaches 30.

Separate prices and breakdowns

Keep an under-30 exempt net price and an optional over-30 VAT-inclusive override, with net, VAT and gross amounts carried into checkout records and receipts.

Reporting and exports

Separate taxable and exempt activity in VAT reporting and accountant-oriented exports instead of blending age bands into one unexplained total.

Danish payment and accounting paths

Use MobilePay through eligible Stripe accounts and export transaction and VAT records for accountant review. A provider-specific accounting connection is not included in the generally available product today.

Important boundary

Software support is not tax advice

Booking Bible applies the venue’s configured country, VAT registration, product category, pricing and client evidence. The venue remains responsible for determining whether an activity qualifies, retaining appropriate documentation, and filing correctly.

Denmark VAT questions

Clear answers before configuration

Which Danish businesses are affected?
The Danish Tax Agency describes relevant commercial providers of fitness, exercise, dance, yoga, singing and music instruction with taxable turnover of DKK 50,000 or more in a calendar year. Exemptions and special cases can apply, so the venue remains responsible for its tax classification.
What does U30 mean in Booking Bible?
U30 is shorthand for a client under 30. For a qualifying Danish, VAT-registered venue and a relevant age-configured instruction product, Booking Bible can use the exempt band only when the required evidence is complete.
What does O30 mean?
O30 is shorthand for the taxable age band: clients aged 30 or over. The same safe band is used when date of birth is unknown or exemption evidence is incomplete.
Does Booking Bible decide whether my service is taxable?
No. The venue configures its country, VAT registration, product category and pricing based on professional advice. Booking Bible applies that configured treatment and preserves the resulting records.
Is Booking Bible “fully compliant” with Danish VAT law?
We do not make that blanket claim. The product is built to support the current age-based workflows, but each venue is responsible for classification, evidence, configuration and filings. Rules and guidance can change.
