Sales to clients outside EU
Permalink Closed


Hi All,

My client is providing services to a related company outside EU. They are not charging VAT based on the recharged clause.

Do you think the amount of these services should be included in the VAT return in box 6?

I have met different opinions and would appreciate yours too.

 

Nina

Quick one - just on a 30 second break!

What services? Where specidically are they performed? Where outside EU?

I wouldnt go off opinion tbh - you need to check the actual legislation.

Hi Joanne,

Yes it was quick :) A lot is going on..

Services are research and development of software to a business in Norway.

I think they should be included in box 6 but the previous accountant did not just posted as non VAT and they are treated as out of scope which I think is not right.

So on what basis do you consider the previous person to be incorrect?

We don't have enough information on the related parties side of this I'm afriad. I'm assuming from the non answe earlier that they are not part of a vat group, but we still need to know the relationship.

There seems to not only be place of supply issues to contend with, but there are place of business and possibly even establishment ones to consider.

Do they also supply other non related businesses in Norway?

What vat scheme are they on?

Yes, the sale should be included in Box 6.
And, obtain evidence that the customer is in business; otherwise HMRC may charge you UK VAT.
