Hi. I am AAT qualified and work as Bookkeeper for a private company. I am not sure that the previous finance professional had applied correct VAT treatment when selling annual sponsorship on three separate events taking place in London and USA.
This is what has been done:
Invoices to UK established companies have VAT charge on all three events (taking place in UK and USA). Invoices to US based companies for the same events do not charge VAT.
Is this the right thing to do? Based on the place of supply should VAT be charged on London event and zero-rated for events in USA on invoices to ALL customers independent where they are based?
Im losing no sleep over that one Caron. An attitude problem was evident and a total lack of reading up gvien the Q has been asked in different guises on there on several occasions. www.accountingweb.co.uk/profile/blanka

Just glad I didnt waste my time responding on here. Fact is the OP clearly doesnt have sufficient VAT knowledge to deal with this and needs to be honest with her employers and buy in some expertise. A little knowledge is dangerous.
