UK Company Selling on Amazon US - VAT Problems
We are a UK company selling exclusively on Amazon USA. Started one month ago and we're being charged 20% VAT on PPC advertising and all Amazon fees including FBA fees, referral fee, etc.
Under UK law we aren't required to register for VAT yet because we earn under the threshold for registration. I've read online of other sellers in the same situation contacting Amazon and getting VAT collection stopped and reimbursed for the VAT already paid. I contacted Seller Support 2 weeks ago to try to solve this but have heard nothing back yet.
Any ideas for how to speed this up with Seller Support? This is really impacting our cashflow.

Good Evening @Seller_dHKqJvTRcqKCF. Thanks for reaching out to us on the Seller Forums. Did you still need some help with escalating your case to Selling Partner Support regarding your VAT charges?
If you could provide me with the Selling Partner Support case ID, I can begin investigating the issue more thoroughly.
Looking forward to hearing from you soon. Hope you have a great rest of the week. Sincerely, Cooper_Amazon
