Hi, I have been working on a project with a yacht who was originally charged VAT for the delivery of goods and services within UK but has now exported the yacht complete with the products outside of EU and is entitled to reclaim the VAT upon the proof of export (subject to some other conditions which are met). How should I go about posting the transaction in Solar online please?

Hello Simon,

I'm sorry I'm not too familiar with the VAT rules in your situation. Would
you have been able to reclaim the VAT if the yacht was still located in the
UK?

Hi Mark,
Thanks for coming back to me.
It’s the yacht claiming it back from my company which would then need to reflect in the VAT return so that we get the appropriate reduction in due VAT.
So I will effectively be making a payment equivalent to the VAT amount (from multiple invoices) that has already been collected by Burmarc in a previous VAT return
Kind regards Simon

Hi Simon,

To create a VAT-only invoice or purchase invoice in Solar Accounts, click
the 'VAT' link below the Subtotal field and click 'Yes'. Then enter a Unit
Price of zero and the VAT Amount to equal to the full amount of the invoice.

However, I don't know enough about your particular situation to say whether
a VAT-only invoice is appropriate - please check with your accountant.
