How do I treat a one-off sale to Austria?

VAT registered, selling a small service to Austria, want to know how to treat VAT

Didn't find your answer?

I am sure I have asked this question before but it seems to have vanished!

We are VAT registered and have sold some advice to a farmer in Austria. Should I charge VAT on the invoice? And do I need to get involved in Intrastat?

No you do not need to get involved with Intrastat, because Intrastat returns deal with movements of goods. It will need to go on an EC sales list.

If it is a B2B general rule service then the farmer in Austria reverse charges to account for Austrian VAT. If it isn't, then you may need to register in Austria and account for the Austrian VAT yourself. Unfortunately, "we have sold some advice to a farmer in Austria" is inadequate in terms of helping anybody determine whether or not it is B2B general rule though.
