    I sell a few things on ebay and now also to general public here via mail order? Now the question is, if im buying stuff in from a fellow eu state and i pay the VAT on those goods in that EU state am i liable to VAT here? I was told that i had to have a certain turnover for this to come into effect? Hope this makes sense?

    HI Snaps

    i suppose the real question here is whether you consider that you are carrying on a trade? and accordingly the income tax rules kick in also,
    Distance selling in the EU occurs when a supplier in one EU Member State sells goods to a person in another Member State who is not registered for VAT and the supplier is responsible for the delivery of the goods. sales to customers in other Member States who are not registered for VAT are liable to VAT in the Member State of the supplier provided that the threshold appropriate to the Member State of the customer is not breached and in this regard its 35k, in a calander year by the way
