Sell goods to the UK
For businesses selling goods to the UK, excluding those using the Northern Ireland protocol, you should now treat this as a sale to a non-EC country.
For this you would normally use the zero rated export of goods to customers outside EC tax code, T14.
Trading goods with Northern Ireland – Northern Ireland protocol
When trading goods with Northern Ireland, to avoid a hard border, the Northern Ireland protocol has been introduced.
Buy goods from Northern Ireland
Under the Northern Ireland protocol, buying goods located in Northern Ireland should continue to be treated like intra-community acquisitions after 1 January 2021.
Sell goods to Northern Ireland
Under the Northern Ireland protocol, selling goods to Northern Ireland should continue to be treated like intra-community dispatches and distance sales after 1 January 2021.
Buy and sell services
There is no change in the way you buy and sell services to and from the UK. However, you must change your vat codes to outside the EU
e.g. If you are selling a service currently they should be using T22 Sales of services to VAT registered customers in EC which should now be T14 Zero rated export of goods to customers outside EC. This would be the same for T23 Zero rated export of goods to customers outside EC.
