EROI Number for Out of Country Importer

Hello, I just completed registering a corporation for VAT. According to the application, we will need an EROI as we will be importing over 135 GBP of items to a warehouse located in the UK. Questions are: - Will we be assigned a GB EROI number with the processed VAT application? I stated yes to requiring based on the VAT application guidelines. - If we will not be assigned a GB EROI via the VAT application, do we need to apply for a UTR for the corporation to apply for a GB EROI? - If we apply for a UTR, is it a limited company? Thank you for your help. Thank you.

If you applied at the time you applied for a VAT registration then you will generally be allocated an EORI once your VAT registration is processed. You do not need to be a UK registered company to get an EORI number.

Hello, If you have requested an EORI number on your VAT application once your VAT number is generated it wil be forwarded to the EORI team to link to your VAT number   . Thank you.
