Do you charge VAT on export charges?
Export charges are liable for VAT however, these fall under the category of zero-rated charges, in terms of VAT.
On your shipping invoice, we specify a VAT rate of 0% which means VAT has been applied at a rate of 0% which effectively means you have not been charged VAT on your export charges.
Please bear in mind that certain activities, in connection with export activities may be liable to VAT charges. For further information on this, please visit HMRC Guidelines VAT Notice 744B
