I am based in a country other than Belgium, but within the European Community. My company has a VAT identification number - what VAT rate will I have to pay?
In concrete terms, any company that sells (supplies) or buys (acquires) goods to or from a professional based in another European country is subject to intra-Community VAT. An intra-Community acquisition is a purchase of goods made by a taxable company established in Germany, for example, from a taxable company established in another member state of the European Union.
During the purchase procedure on our website, you will be asked for your VAT identification number. After you enter it, the system will verify that it is valid, and then create the bill for your purchases, excluding VAT.
After delivery, an invoice will be sent to you by e-mail, with the amount paid at the bottom of the page, accompanied by the following comment: Reverse charge – Art. 44 of the Council Directive 2006/112/EC of 28 November 2006 on the common system of value added tax
