If you buy goods and services from a supplier in another EU country they can provide these to you VAT free if you are a business under the reverse charge system. If you are not VAT registered you may need to register and account for VAT on such goods and services if the value exceeds these limits.
When you sell goods directly to consumers in another EU state you charge your home country’s VAT until you exceed these limits.
These thresholds do not apply to enterprises already trading or registered in another member state.
