Vinted HMRC threshold: will Vinted report your sales?
Short answer: Vinted reports a seller's sales to HMRC once they make 30 sales or more, or sell over €2,000 (about £1,700), in a calendar year, under the UK reporting rules for digital platforms. One condition is enough. Being reported is not the same as owing tax: selling your own used belongings is usually not taxable.
Enter your completed sales since 1 January and their total: the tool tells you whether you have reached the threshold, how far you are from it, and roughly when you will reach it at your current pace.

Examples: will Vinted report your sales to HMRC?
| Sales in the year | Value of sales | Reported to HMRC |
|---|---|---|
| 12 | £450 | No |
| 29 | £1,500 | No |
| 30 | £200 | Yes |
| 10 | £1,800 | Yes |
| 45 | £2,400 | Yes |
Rule: 30 sales or more, OR over €2,000 (about £1,700) in sales, in a calendar year. Values near £1,700 depend on the exchange rate used.
How the HMRC reporting threshold works
Since 2024, UK rules require digital platforms such as Vinted to share sellers' sales data with HMRC. GOV.UK says a platform does not have to report you if you make fewer than 30 sales of goods and receive less than €2,000 (about £1,700) in a calendar year. Vinted puts it the other way round: it reports sellers with 30 sales or more, or over €2,000 (~£1,700).
The two conditions are separate: 30 small sales are enough, even if they add up to £200, and so are a few sales worth over about £1,700. The count starts again on 1 January.
Being reported is not the same as paying tax
Reporting tells HMRC what you sold; it does not create a tax bill. Selling your own used belongings is usually not taxable, even above the threshold.
Buying items to resell them at a profit is trading, and trading income may need to be declared. Vinted's rules also say standard accounts can't be used to sell as a business.
What the tool counts
Completed sales in the calendar year and their value, meaning the price of the items you sold. The Vinted fee, paid by the buyer, is not part of what you receive.
The forecast assumes you keep the same pace until 31 December: it gives an order of magnitude, not a prediction.
Frequently asked questions
Does Vinted report to HMRC?
Yes, for sellers who make 30 sales or more, or sell over €2,000 (about £1,700), in a calendar year, under the UK reporting rules for digital platforms. Below both thresholds, nothing is reported under these rules.
Do I need to meet both conditions?
No, one is enough: 30 sales trigger reporting whatever their value, and over about £1,700 in sales triggers it even with fewer than 30 sales.
Why is the threshold "about £1,700"?
Because the rule is set in euros (€2,000). Vinted and GOV.UK both give £1,700 as an approximate conversion.
Does the count reset every year?
Yes. The threshold applies per calendar year, from 1 January to 31 December.
If I pass the threshold, do I have to pay tax?
Not necessarily. Reporting tells HMRC what you sold; whether you owe tax depends on what you sell. Selling your own used belongings is usually not taxable; buying to resell at a profit is trading.
