Hi,
Probably I can find it in the knowledge base, but I couldn’t… So if someone could please advise me or share where / how can I find answers Thanks! Invoicing for on-line services/consultancy.

Case 1:

Company B: DE based not registered for VAT

• A invoicing B and vice versa.
  How to do it properly?

Case 2:
A: UK based not registered for VAT
B: DE based registered for VAT

• A invoicing B and vice versa.
  How to do it properly?

Case 3:
A: UK based registered for VAT

Hi @michalzw

Case 1: Invoice as normal as there is no VAT involved in either direction.

Case 2: If the UK is invoicing DE, then there is no VAT present to worry about so invoice as normal.

Where DE is invoicing the UK, it would be best to seek professional advice as there may be different rules in DE regarding this.

Case 3: Please see the following guide: Choosing the right VAT options for your overseas clients and suppliers

I hope this helps, but if you have any further questions, please seek professional advice, you’re welcome to post here and an accountant may help, but we are not professionals.
