Business-to-business trade has its own legal framework: prices excluding VAT, evidence requirements for intra-community supplies, electronic invoice formats, contracts concluded through quotes, data protection for buyer accounts and, increasingly, requirements from accessibility and security regulation. The articles in this category set out what actually applies to shops and portals, which information has to appear where, and how obligations can be implemented technically without overloading the checkout. We name the points to check, the omissions we see most often and the interfaces to accounting and tax advisors. The articles do not replace individual legal advice, but they create a solid basis for those discussions. We also explain how to spread recurring reviews across the year so that changes to the assortment or to providers do not silently create new obligations.
