VAT Reverse Charge under art.44 of VAT Directive 2006/11/WE Goods from Poland

SUGGESTED

Hi all,

I'm very new to this so please bear with me!

I have had a question from a client who has purchased some office furniture from Poland.  My client is UK and VAT registered.

Am I right in assuming that I should you tax code T17?  However on the practice data then I entered the transaction and used tax code T17 and then checked the VAT return to see how it deals with the VAT.  It applied the Reverse charge (boxes 1 & 4) which I get.....but why was it calculating at 17.5%???  The invoice (see below) has a VAT rate of 0%.

Your help to clarify this would be much appreciated.

Thank you in advance

    Hi,

    When using T17 it'll impact your VAT Return by 

    • Purchases - Net amount affects box 7. VAT amount affects boxes 1 and 4. This is notional VAT which cancels itself out.

    In Practice data T1 (The Standard Rate code) is still using 17.5% rather than 20% which is why T17 is wrong as it's linked to that code.

    I'll ensure that T1 is updated in practice data for the v28 release of Sage Accounts but for now you can edit it by going to Settings > Configurations > Tax Codes > Edit T1 and change rate to 20.00
