freelance_copy_editor

Hi, I am a freelance copy editor (sole trader) based in the UK. My turnover has recently exceeded the UK VAT threshold. My clients are all publishing service businesses in the Philippines and India, so my turnover is derived entirely from supplying services business to business overseas. I think this would be outside the scope of UK VAT because of place of supply rules, so my taxable VAT turnover is zero. Is that correct? Please would someone confirm whether or not I need to register for VAT.
