Importing and selling from Germany & VAT

Am I understanding this correctly?

I will be importing goods from Germany to the UK.

The manufacturer will be shipping to the UK with a zero rated invoice and I will be responsible for all VAT and duties once it enters the UK.

Some of the goods will be going to a German warehouse and for those I will receive a VAT invoice including German VAT for which I am registered.

For those German based goods I will only add the net amount of the invoice into my expenses. The VAT is refundable from sales made in Germany and has nothing to do with my UK accounting?

Hi @Alexandra_Wrega

It may be worth asking an accountant for help with this, just to make sure you get the correct guidance for your situation.

I’m sorry I couldn’t be of more help on this occasion.
