EU Sales

how do we register a sale to a EU company ie a company I sell to in France who are VAT registered. manual VAT return used to ask for info on sale to EU notice on last return this was not registered. how is this recorded in quick file accounts

Unless you’re based in Northern Ireland there’s no longer anything special about sales to the EU vs sales to anywhere else in the world. If you’re exporting goods to a business customer (which these are if you say they’re vat registered) you just zero rate the sale and they pay their VAT at import, if you’re selling (most types of) services again you just zero rate and put a note on the invoice that the customer must account for VAT via a reverse charge.

It’s more complex if the buyer is a consumer rather than a business.
