The entire EU as of July 1st, 2021. We're just copying them and rushing it out early for further foot-shooting. Because, you see, we're a sovereign country and can make our own laws.

Now we are sovereign again, can we get the guinea back too? :) guinea pig: someone who fleeces people for an extra five percent when they don't notice the price is in guineas and not pounds.

This never made it into the press because it wasn't on the agenda.

I was aware that the VAT import threshold in the EU was going to drop to zero on 1st July 2021 - weirdly it didn't cross my mind that we'd implement same and do it on 1st Jan 2021.

This is quite informative: https://www.bishopfleming.co.uk/insights/brexit-guides-b2c-supplies-customers-eu-after-1-january-2021
MadScientist:
The EU also intended to drop the vat deminimis on the 1st Jan , it  delayed this due to COVID

The idea of dropping the deminimis was to “ encourage “ suppliers to charge VAT at source and collect for the destination country. The  idea being that this avoids a customs collection charge and hence suppliers will see the benefit in “ extra judicial” tax collection

Remember the uk essentially transferred all the EU laws into domestic law in one swop,  you now have a little EU all to yourselves

RULES OF ORIGIN |O

This'll be fun.

Our products (made in the UK from parts from allover the world) undoubtedly meets the ad-valorem ("value added") rules. However we also sell C20/C19 cables with our CPA100 power analysers, some of these are made in China and we don't process these further, so won't meet the ad-valorem rules unless they are supplied as part of the whole package?? Probably? Maybe? Can we sell these as spares? What about existing stock? Who knows?
