EC Sales Lists are submitted to HM Revenue & Customs (HMRC) by businesses. If you make supplies to VAT Registered businesses in other EC member states, you must submit EC Sales Lists to HMRC.
The EC Sales List includes all transactions posted with a T4 or T22 tax code to customers who are VAT registered in other EC member states if their Customer Record includes a valid VAT number and EC country code.
You can submit your EC Sales List on a monthly, quarterly or annual basis depending on if it includes goods or services.
Company > Manage VAT > EC Sales.
Tip: The VAT Registration No and Branch Identifier boxes update with the information stored in your VAT settings.
