VAT on telecommunications services B2B

VAT on telecommunications services B2B

Didn't find your answer?

Hi

From Jan 15 the VAT rules have changed with regard to telecommunication services, so the supplier has to charge consumers in other EU countries (B2C) VAT at the rate applicable in the consumer's country. However, are there any changes as to the vat treatment of vat registered businesses (B2B)? The reason I am asking is because before Jan 2015, the place of supply was the basic rule (where customer is), with "effectively used and enjoyed" modification. So, if we have a uk vat registered company with operations in another country and buying telephone services from that other country to be used in the operations in the other EU country, the place of supply would be the other EU country (and thus outside the scope of UK VAT). Is there any change there or the changes apply only to B2C? Thanks.
