Chinese company contracting through UK company

Didn't find your answer?

Hi, would anyone know how to best invoice between related UK and Chinese companies in the following instance, or know where I could find guidance?

A UK company is to provide a website to a UK client, and the UK company has invoiced the UK client (say £2k); however, the job is to be owned and performed by a related Chinese company. To make things a little more complicated, the UK company will also perform a small amount of work on this job. Should the Chinese company invoice the UK company for the full amount of the job (£2k) and then the UK company invoice the Chinese company for the small amount of work it does (£0.5k)? Or should the Chinese company invoice the UK company the difference between the full job amount and the amount the UK company does (net £1.5k)? And should the original invoice from the UK company to the UK client go through the balance sheet since the job (and therefore turnover) is really for the Chinese company?

Thanks for any advice!
