Hi

I am into supply of services from UK to EU countries. Most of my suppliers and customers are VAT registered, but some are not. I need help on the below:

1. Selling services to VAT registered business in EU: 0% ECS- Should appear in box 6

2. Purchasing service from VAT registered business in EU: 0% ECS- Should appear in boxes 1,4, and 7

3. Purchasing service from Non VAT registered business in EU: Shold it be marked as Exempt so that it appears only in Box 7?

4. Selling services to Non-VAT registered business in EU: Do I charge 20% S, or should it be 0% for Outside scope of VAT, like in the case of businesses outside EU?

Hello Neha Chopra, 

 

Welcome to the Community page, 

 

So none of the EC codes should be used after 1/1/21 due to brexit. We would advise you speak to an trained and qualified accountant or speak to HMRC to determine what codes to use.
