Hello,
I sell products to both IE and EU markets, mostly consumers, not
businesses. So I have to charge all customers in EU, VAT at the
Irish VAT rate of 21%. My competition in the UK and other markets only charge VAT at 17.5% or less. This makes my products uncompetitive.
So my question is, as an Irish Registered company, can I register
for VAT in another (say the cheapest) country, and do tax accounting
there? Or does the company itself need to be registered in the same
jurisdiction as the VAT registration?
What is the best solution to this problem?
