Why This Matters
EU sellers who automate VAT compliance through the VAT Calculation Report need to update any code that references the old SDI column names before June 2026. Failure to update could break invoice tracking and tax compliance workflows across European marketplaces.

- The change reflects Amazon's expansion of e-invoicing support from Italy to all EU marketplaces
- Only column headers are changing — underlying data and report structure remain the same
- Sellers with automated VCR integrations have roughly four months to update their code
Recommended Actions
- →Audit all automated processes, scripts, and integrations that reference SDI column names in VCR data
- →Notify third-party developers and accounting service providers about the column rename deadline
- →Run parallel tests with the new column names to validate compatibility before the June 1 cutover
