Should I charge my country's equivalent of VAT to Alamy?
No. We are VAT registered in the UK with a VAT number of GB 718 2941 23. If you need to produce an invoice for your own records the wording on the invoice will depend on your country's requirements for issuing invoices for supplies which are outside the scope of your country's VAT regime, as the supply falls within Article 9,2 (e) of the VAT Sixth Directive.
Do I have to send an invoice to Alamy for sales paid to me by Alamy?
No. If you want to produce an invoice then you should ensure that it states that the supply of goods is subject to reverse charging. The actual wording that should appear on the invoice will depend on the individual requirements of your VAT authority.
