Frequently asked questions
Do I need VAT registration even if my sales are low?
There is no registration threshold for non-established taxable persons (NETPs): registration is required from your first taxable sale in the UK. A UK LTD managed from abroad may also count as a NETP; confirm your position with an accountant.
Does Amazon collect VAT on my behalf?
On some sales, the marketplace collects the VAT. That does not always remove your own registration and filing obligations.
How is a VAT number verified on Amazon?
You enter the VAT number in the tax settings in Seller Central, and Amazon verifies it. It must match your company details exactly.
