VAT in case of EU, UK & US customers while having no substance in the UK

[gnud]

Hi, I own an Ltd that will provide services to EU, UK and US customers remotely, the company will have no substance in the UK, I will outsource myself the work and personally manage it from the UAE. Will the company need to collect and pay VAT in the UK for any of these services?

You need to look at the "Place of Supply Rules" and "Place of Belonging" Rules for UK VAT. Check out the link below which will give you the answers to your question:

Place of supply of services (VAT Notice 741A)

Find out how to determine the place of supply of your services and how to deal with supplies of services which you receive from outside the UK.

Even if you are not required to be registered for VAT in the UK, you might be entitled to do so, and recover input tax on UK costs.
Worth considering.

(Although not the question asked, there is potentially VAT in whatever EU country you are selling to).
