B2B Transactions

    Business-to-business sales with specific VAT rules.

    Definition

    B2B transactions between EU member states often qualify for the reverse charge mechanism, where the buyer accounts for VAT instead of the seller. This simplifies cross-border trade by eliminating the need for the seller to register for VAT in the buyer's country.
