There was a bit of discussion about this when the VAT change was announced.

Using Italy as an example....

Italy is now charging Italian VAT on their fees. I thought this would happen but I was reassured by some other sellers that the fees would be charged from the UK with UK VAT.

So I now need to claim VAT back from Italy. When I spoke to Amazon about this they said Amazon VAT services could not do this. I was not surprised that Amazon had introduced a change without linking it with their own VAT services. This problem has gone away as Amazon have stopped their VAT services anyway.

So I am now going to be in a situation where the EU countries owe me VAT back each month. Previously I have really struggled to get the money back, particularly Italy and Spain.

Does anyone know how the new process will work?
