From 1 January 2015, EU VAT has to be charged in the country where products are bought, not the country where they are sold.

The legislation applies to digital products such as e-books, music, online courses or downloads. Every business, even those who sell just £1 worth of digital products to the EU, is required to register for VAT.

We, the undersigned, call on Vince Cable the UK Business Secretary to intervene and introduce a VAT Exemption Threshold for businesses supplying digital products, consitent with the existing UK VAT registration threshold of £81,000.
