Since August I have had a business account and have now received my first invoice for the eBay fees. However, there is no indication anywhere on the invoice that the reverse charge procedure applies. It looks like this, among other things: TaxesTotal amount not subject to tax: €0.00Total amount subject to tax at 19%: €8.40VAT at 19%: €1.68Total amount of current invoice in EUR: €10.08 Furthermore, eBay is listed as the issuer of the invoice with a German address. €8.82 has now been debited from the account. The €0.42 difference is probably the listing fees that were charged right at the end of the month for another listing.First question: How do I book this now, if the invoice says €8.40 and €8.82 was debited?? Second question: Does the reverse charge procedure apply here now? I would have to transfer the €1.68 to my tax office without being asked and file the VAT advance return. Or has eBay already remitted this tax? I just miss the note on the invoice as to whether the reverse charge procedure is applied at all. That has to be stated on such an invoice. Thanks in advance 🙂
