Hi,

If you supply digital services to customers outside the UK then this will be Outside the Scope of UK VAT.

If the supplies are to businesses in the EU then the VAT will be accounted for under the reverse charge procedure by the EU company.

However if you supply these services to individuals in the EU then there will be a requirement to either register for VAT in the countries where your individual customers belong or you can

register for the Non Union VAT MOSS system.

Please see the guidance below:

VAT rules for supplies of digital services to consumers

Defining digital services

Thank you.

Thank for sharing this valuable information. My UK company registered address is "London" but i am in India and VAT registration certificate i received showing the Indian address (New delhi, India). In this case i need to register for Non Union VAT MOSS system or Union VAT MOSS?

Hi Rahul2024 prajapati,
It's difficult to comment on a EU scheme but I believe you would register for the Non Union Moss Scheme.
You can register for this in any member state.
Please see the link below, as an example, which contains the information within the Irish member state which describes these options for you:
Non-Union scheme - One-Stop Shop
Thank you

Hi I confirmed with one of the UK VAT professional expert. He told me that he don't need the Non Union OSS VAT registration because my 95% Sales from UK to Germany (EU country) as B2B supply and 5% sale in UK only. Therefore, I not need to get registered and VAT Filing requirement under Non Union OSS scheme. Now, My question is that Can i report my sales from UK to Germany(EU Sales) in UK VAT return. If not, then where should i report this sale or i just ignore this sale at the time of filing of UK VAT return?

Hi,
If you are supplying these services to Germany then they will be Outside The Scope of UK VAT.
However they still do need to be reported on your UK VAT return and they  would be entered in box 6 of the return.
Please see below:
6. The place of supply rules for services
3. How to fill in each box on your return
Thank you.
