    Exporting products to the EU .. no one seems to know the answer...

    It really depends on the UK legislation in regards to how VAT will be handled. IF the EU's status is the same as the US (right now), you would sell to the EU companies just like you sell now to the US companies - WITHOUT charging VAT. As it's considered exporting outside the EU. And the same...

    Print on demand service for letter, certificate and envelope?

    You need it in a A4 size? Can't use a postcard or similar? As then you would probably have more options.

    Anyone here ever ran an Xmas market (or any kind of similar thing)?

    Haven't done Christmas markets specifically, but something very similar (for organic food). But basically, yes - it's a project management and you can make it as big or small as you want. You could start with a place OR with getting in touch with 20, 30 (or whatever) number of local businesses...

    Rail Freight - China to UK DDP

    This is basically a scam/tax evasion scheme that has been running for some time now and I believe - at a massive scale. They basically smuggle goods into the EU without properly declaring them. This is NOT a legit DDP deal where all the taxes, including VAT, are paid and accounted for. My...

    Newbie Looking for Wholesalers of Goods to Sell on Amazon - Which ones are better? UK or Chinese Sup

    Hello & Welcome to forums! If you plan on selling on Amazon, forget about local wholesalers. In 99% of cases, their prices simply won't be competitive and you won't be able to make a profit on Amazon. The whole Amazon FBA game is about importing goods directly from China, in bulk. That's the...

    How is the best way to connect importers in the UK?

    Do you have a website? Then the quickest way to get customers in is to use Google Adwords. As it's a search query based traffic, you can really nail it down and with a great website/landing page, you should be able to get targeted traffic easily.

    Best checkout ever

    What shopping cart platform you use? I have seen some amazing checkouts on custom-built platforms, but that won't be available/cost-effective for small-time traders - to create a fully customised checkout process. I do find that Shopify's checkout pages/process is quite good and this is the...

    Amazon VAT calculation Service and Pan EU

    In the US it's not VAT you manage, but Sales Tax. And yes, the situation is VERY complex. You have to basically register for Sales Tax in dozens of States, do returns etc. It will be very expensive and cost you at least £5k+ in initial fees and then monthly returns. Here's a great website/blog...

    Amazon VAT calculation Service and Pan EU

    I do sell via the PAN-EU program and I use VATGlobal.com for all my VAT returns. They also handle the EC Sales list. Don't know how they handle the wrong VAT numbers though, they have never asked me about it...

    Experience with dropshiping and Click Funnels?

    I use both platforms on a daily basis and both can work for you. IF it's just a single product business/websites, Clickfunnels will be perfect for it. And most likely you will build up a portfolio of products/brands, which means that you can use one Clickfunnels account for all of them. With...

    Is VAT registration needed for doing business with Spain?

    No, you don't need to be VAT registered to deal with a company in Spain OR any company in any EU country. Sometimes you have to educate such companies on how EU trade works between countries, how VAT is dealt with etc., but they should not request that you're VAT registered, it does not make...
