just-VAT purchase due to import

Hi there

How can I insert as a purchase duties/taxes/VAT I paid for a product I imported from Sweden?

When “normally” inserting purchases the VAT is calculated automatically (0%, 5%, 20%) on the basis of the NET amount, but I need to JUST show the VAT paid - not the amount it was based on, since HMRC calculates this with their own EUR-GBP conversions, not the actual amount I paid in GBP…

Many thanks!

Just to clarify I want to create a purchase showing the below

£22.31 Duties + taxes (no VAT due)
£11.50 Broker Fee (no VAT due)
£117.26 VAT

£151.07 TOTAL

Many thanks!

Hi @tsomek

You can add a line on the invoice which has £0 net and only VAT - this should work for what you’re asking

Oh wow, that actually worked just fine

Was somehow doing it all wrong before

Many thanks!
