VAT free delivery intra-community

JO pEARS

I have today received an invoice from our head office in Germany, with the following two comments on.
VAT free delivery intra-community
and
Tax charge transferred to ship to party.

Does this mean I need to account for VAT on this invoice using the EC VAT code 8 in Sage.
Thanks

Intra-community sales are not subject to VAT, but the value of the purchases from EC countries has to be declared on the VAT return. The figure for EC purchases goes in to box 9 and sales goes into box 8.

Hope this helps.
