In today’s article we will take a look at information the EU Commission suggests that should be collected and used to determine the location of the customer – buyer of eservices. We will also analyze the practicability of the various proposed location evidences and think about how easy they are obtained in practice.
As you are probably aware, at least as of 2015 every business supplying eservices to non-VAT registered customers in the EU will have to charge VAT in the country where its customer is located. In a number of cases this rule already applies (e.g. if the eservices are supplied by non-EU companies to EU customers or if they are supplied to Swiss, Norwegian, etc… customers).
