VAT for B2B shop

[YPS BVBA]

I'm preparing an online shop for our clients.

 

We are a Belgian distributor and sell our goods only to professionals with valid VAT registration in countries Belgium, Netherlands, Germany.

 

I notice a problem with calculating VAT in some scenario's.

We have the option to choose a different delivery address <> invoice address.

 

Our exemple between Belgium <> Netherlands country

 

VAT based on invoice address

delivery in Belgium & invoicing in Belgium = 21% VAT = OK

delivery in Belgium & invoicing in Netherlands = 0% VAT according Prestashop = WRONG

This should be 21% VAT according our federal government economy

delivery in Netherlands & invoicing in Belgium = 21% VAT = OK

delivery in Netherlands & invoicing in Netherlands = 0% VAT = OK

 

VAT based on delivery address

delivery in Belgium & invoicing in Belgium = 21% VAT = OK

delivery in Belgium & invoicing in Netherlands = 21% VAT = OK

delivery in Netherlands & invoicing in Belgium = 0% VAT according Prestashop = WRONG

This should be 21% VAT according our federal government economy

delivery in Netherlands & invoicing in Netherlands = 0% VAT = OK

 

Can anybody help me where and how I can change this please because it's not correct accoding Belgium VAT law!

 

In this this is too complex, I would like to calculate VAT 21% always for all clients, but this option is also not available?

 

Thanks for your soonest support.

it looks like only 0% vat should be applied when shippingadres AND invoiceadres is outside your country. it looks like a european rule/law, and should be applicable to all countries of the EU
