We have an order for goods from a Malaysian company who will be invoiced. They require the goods shipped from our UK business address to another UK business address before being forwarded to Malaysia. My question is, do we charge VAT on the goods as they are shipped to a UK company who will be then shipping, not charging, the goods to Malaysia. Thank you.

You should find guidance here https://www.gov.uk/guidance/vat-exports-dispatches-and-supplying-goods-abroad To quote from this guidance : You must not zero rate sales if your customer asks you to deliver them to a UK address. If the customer arranges to collect them from you (an indirect export), you may be able to zero rate the sale as long as you meet certain zero rating conditions.
