When dell had a factory in ROI you didn't get charged the ROI Rate. It doesn't make any difference where the product is actually made. If I orderd a machine from poland, and had it shipped to the UK then I would pay the polish VAT rate, the same as if I had gone there and bought it in person.

Re: [ubuntu-uk] Fw: EU rules for member States and more!
I am not qualifed to comment on EU VAT on intercompany busines, My point was, if an individual purchases goods from an EU State, the VAT rate of that State is applied, so for example, a purchase from Polaland is at the 22.5% rate. --- On Thu, 5/3/09, Angelos Chatzikostas wrote: From: Angelos Chatzikostas Subject: Re: [ubuntu-uk] Fw: EU rules for member States and more!

Why does the building industry use the millimetre as the standard of measurement, and businesses such as Maplin think that the unit of current is the milliamp. A 1000 millimetre worktop or a 2200 milliamp battery are incorrect expressions of measurement.

Re: [ubuntu-uk] Fw: EU rules for member States and more!
There is no VAT in intra EU transaction. But the importer has to pay the VAT in customs. That is ofcourse applied to companies and not individuals... I think UK has to see more friendly the EU ...
