SearchSelling online? Don’t let VAT and customs trip you up
Selling online can open up a world of opportunity – quite literally. But as soon as you start selling goods to customers through online marketplaces or across international borders, VAT and customs can quickly become complicated.
Whether you’re selling through Amazon, eBay, Etsy or Shopify, understanding where you need to register for VAT, what happens when goods cross borders and who is responsible for what can save you from expensive surprises further down the line.
Join VAT and customs specialists from across the Dains Group for this practical one-hour webinar, where we’ll cut through some of the complexity and explain the key things online retailers need to know.
What will we cover?
We’ll look at:
- VAT obligations when selling through Amazon, eBay, Etsy and Shopify
- When you may need to register for VAT in the UK or overseas
- How customs agents work and when you might need one
- The One Stop Shop (OSS) and Import One Stop Shop (IOSS) – and when they can help
- The VAT and customs implications of importing goods for onward sale
The session is aimed at businesses already selling online, as well as those considering expanding their e-commerce operations into new markets.
There’ll be plenty of practical guidance to help you understand where the potential VAT and customs pitfalls lie – and what you can do about them.
