Introduction

The law, transposing the EU directive 2003/48/CE of 3rd June 2003 concerning the savings tax, gives the beneficiaries of interest revenues the possibility not to have a tax deduction at source, but to have the Paying Agents to send an information concerning the revenue to the local Tax Administration.

The information is collected by Paying Agents during the year and at the beginning of the following year, they send the information to the Tax Administration.

The Tax Administration of Luxembourg published the specifications in "circulaire 2005 RIUE 2 bis, ter, quater, quinter".
SOFiE, a tools from Six-Payment-Services (Europe) S.A., has been chosen by the Luxembourg Tax Administration as being the only way to send the data to the administration.
The data transfer functionality is integrated to SOFiE through the FisEp Basic package.

As an additional service, the Tax Administration offered by Six-Payment-Services to complete the SOFiE tool with a User Interface that gives Paying Agents a mean to introduce in a simple way the required information and to format a file according to the specifications.
The report creation/edition is available in SOFiE through the FisEp - Saisie Package.
