Searching the legal database B2B place of supply cross-border services

Reading source — Value Added Tax Act 1994

Checking the EU VAT Directive

Preparing the answer

Under the general B2B place-of-supply rule the service is taxed where the customer is established.
So the UK supplier invoices without domestic VAT,
and the customer accounts for it under the reverse charge.

One question

Every source, researched together.

Statute, treaty, official guidance, the company register and the client’s own files — one question fans out across every source in scope and comes back as one answer, with jurisdiction flags on every claim.

  • Statutes, directives and treaties in one pass
  • 20 European jurisdictions, domestic and cross-border
  • Follow-ups keep the full context of the thread
