Hi, Hope someone can help, after the recent VAT change I am trying to update the way we handle Tax on our site, we are using Business 9.0.1.0 IDWA.
We make sales Worldwide and our problem is with the Rest Of The World (ROW) Tax treatment, if we set the tax settings to Tax by Delivery Address and use this to exempt a ROW situation where let’s say the customer is ordering from the UK but for delivery by post to the USA, the USA delivery address will be exempt and we would show T2 exempt transactions which get passed over to Sage Line 50 version 14.01.
The discussion in the office is that ECC nationals should pay tax on goods they buy in the UK or ECC even if they ship them to ROW ( as they are not a company) any idea which is correct or reference to how we can find out.
If it is the later the only other option apart from charge VAT on everything is Tax By Invoice Address in this situation using the same example a person in the USA ( outside the scope or knowledge of VAT ) would be charged VAT on goods they purchase for say a friend in the UK. They of course say they should not pay VAT which seems reasonable.
I have spent a long time looking at threads on the site and also the Inland Revenue site but can’t come up with an answer and even our account is unsure as how to handle it with the options in Actinic Business.
I am sure I must have missed something but after a dozen hours on VAT I am desperate for some help.
