VAT for foreign clients

[monica.marques]

Hi,

I'm sorry for writing this text in english, but my level of dutch is still not good enough, since I'm portuguese and moved just recently to Netherlands.

Right now I'm living and working legally in Netherlands and I want to start working remotely for a client in England as a part-time freelancer, but I have one question to which I couldn't find an answer.

I thought the the VAT that I should add in the receipts for the client would be 21%, but an account told me that I should not do that and use the "VAT reverse-charged" as specified in https://www.belastingdienst.nl/wps/w...e-charging_vat . The problem is that in this page is mentioned for clients in Netherlands and not for foreign clients, so I'm confused, anyone know the answer for this one?

Thanks for any help.

I think it's best if you make the call to the Belastingdienst.

Still .. you haven't told us in which country you did get your VAT registration.
