How does post-Brexit VAT work for my Magento store?
Categories:
Magento Developer UK
Post-1 January 2021 the UK left the EU VAT area, so:
- UK→UK B2C: standard 20% VAT, register at £90k turnover (2024+ threshold).
- UK→EU B2C: use the EU IOSS scheme for orders under €150 (one VAT registration covers all 27 countries) or register per-country above that.
- UK→EU B2B: zero-rated with VAT-number validation; reverse charge.
- EU→UK B2C: overseas sellers register for UK VAT below £135 thresholds.
We rebuild Magento’s tax engine with these rules, plug in EU-OSS / IOSS schemes, and validate VAT numbers via VIES (EU) + HMRC (UK). MTD invoicing wired into QuickBooks / Xero / Sage.
