    Need some advice on selling outside the UK post Brexit

    Thank you that is very helpful. As it's a brand new business and I am not charging VAT. Let's say as an example, the business always stay small so below the VAT threshold, will I still need to charge customers outside the UK tax or VAT?

    As a UK Sole Trader that is NOT VAT registered, do I have to charge VAT when selling abroad?

    :) You are right. My question still remains. Is this definitely the case. If @lesvatadvice can confirm. Are there any articles by HMRC or other trusted sources that specifically state this. In my opinion, this makes this very difficult for one-man bands that are not doing it as a full time...
