VAT Requirement UK to EU (EFN) for B2B sales
Hi Everyone,
We are a UK company and sell goods on Amazon UK and have a UK VAT number. I am considering setting up a European Fulfilment Network.
Question do I also need an EU VAT number if I sell via EFN? We are not going to store products in warehouses in the EU, we just sell them to customers through a UK warehouse.
Amazon says they only charge VAT on B2C sales! What if an EU B2B customer buys from us on Amazon? So amazon takes only VAT from B2C, but what if there will be B2B orders? We will have to register VAT in Europe?
Thanks
