What is the VAT Payable for a UAE customer for a delivery in Italy?

Question

We have a customer in UAE who we are invoicing for a consignment. They have asked us to deliver the goods to a company in Italy (their customer). Do we have to charge them a VAT? The Italian company is a VAT registered company

Answer

Hi Mahyar
If you are invoicing your customer in UAE there is no need to charge any vat as they are outside eu.
If you need any help with shipping your goods to Italy we run a weekly trailer service
from uk – Italy.As well as air freight
Please let me know if we can be of any more help or if you need a quote
