Pickup transactions (ex works supplies) are sales transactions whereby the customer takes care of the collection and transportation of the goods to another EU country. A 0% VAT rate may apply, but only if proof exists of cross border transport. Under the current rules, this proof can consist of a takeaway statement, completed and signed by the person collecting the goods and stating that the goods will indeed go to another EU country. A completed and signed statement supports the use of the 0% VAT rate.
However, as of April this year, a takeaway statement can only be used if the customer itself or one of its employees collects the goods. If a customer uses a carrier or other third party to pick up the goods, this customer must share the relevant transport documentation with its supplier. The supplier needs this documentation as proof of cross-border transport, as a takeaway statement is no longer accepted. Without such transport documentation, a supplier can no longer apply the 0% VAT rate.
Businesses with EU transactions should check whether the above has impact on their current use of the 0% VAT rate. Ex works supplies require special attention.
