How do I get receipt of Amazon fees?
I need a good receipt for my accounting regarding the monthly payment for Amazon. One with business id of Amazon and my company, names, tax breakdown (should be 0% but Amazon steals the taxes too), etc information that is mandatory at least here in EU.
I already tried twice reporting issue, and all I get from those bots is Payment report, which is nothing of the kind. It doesn't have the information regarding tax base nor parties involved.
Any other EU sellers here? How you do your accounting when using Amazon?

Your business in the USA should be registered in one of the States.
- Amazon will collect the sales tax from the buyer and submit it for you.
- You should have a Federal EIN number to which Amazon reports your earnings. You should have on file the IRS form W8-BEN. That form is what foreign companies use to state all profits earned will be exported outside the USA to the Home Country for accounting there.

- If you need exact accounting for every transaction, run a transaction report.
- If you need the name and address of every sale purchased, save a PDF copy of every invoice.

First of all you are not looking for a "receipt" but for an "invoice".
