Frequently Asked Questions
Luxembourg excise tax in Business Central
Which excise product families are supported?
The module provides dedicated support for the main Luxembourg alcohol, tobacco and energy product families. This includes common beer, alcohol, wine, intermediate-product, tobacco, e-liquid and fuel calculations. Coverage of an uncommon legal category should be confirmed during the discovery and demonstration process.
Does the module submit AC4 directly to LUCCS?
No. It prepares and validates LUCCS MIG AC4 XML for manual upload by an authorised user. AC4 XML engineering and local XSD validation are complete, while LUCCS Test portal acceptance evidence remains pending. Direct submission, amendment or invalidation messages, automatic portal responses and automatic splitting above 99 goods items are not included.
Does it connect directly to EMCS?
No. The module manages e-AD and e-SAD movement data, operator details, MRNs, guarantees, receipt status and audit records inside Business Central. It does not provide live EMCS connectivity or electronic transmission.
How are duty-suspended and exempt movements handled?
Each movement carries a duty status in the excise sub-ledger. AC4 preparation draws from Duties Paid entries and lets users inspect Suspended and Exempt entries that are excluded from the declaration.
Can incorrect excise records be corrected?
Yes. Users can cancel and rebuild excise records while leaving posted commercial documents and item ledger entries unchanged. Links to corrected invoices and related AC4 declarations are retained for audit purposes.
Does it post excise duty to the general ledger?
Optionally. Excise amounts can be posted as a single total or as a component breakdown, depending on your accounting policy and setup. Reconciliation reports compare the excise ledger with AC4, the general ledger and Intrastat.
What are the EORI and LuxTrust prerequisites?
The organisation needs an appropriate EORI registration and an authorised LuxTrust identity with the required LUCCS portal rights. These credentials are used by your authorised user for the manual portal upload; they are not stored or used for direct submission by the module.
How does it integrate with Microsoft Business Central?
Fisqal uses Business Central transactions, item and value entries, journals, general-ledger posting and Microsoft Excise Taxes and Sustainability foundations. The result is one workflow from commercial activity and goods movement through reconciliation and AC4 XML preparation.
