I've been asked about my availability for engineering design work when my current contract finishes. The potential customer is a company in the US although they have places in the UK, Europe and Asia too.
The work will be done solely from the UK through my limited company which is VAT-registered.
I have some basic beginner's questions:
1. How is VAT treated for contracts like this - do I charge VAT or not for a US client?
2. Is tax paid solely in this country, or does the US Treasury also want a slice of my cake?
3. Does the fact that the customer is a US company make any difference to IR35?
Has anyone here worked via their Ltd company for a US customer which has a presence in the UK (I think that the UK location is the company headquarters).
Do the answers to the questions above depend on where the customer is, or do they apply to all foreign clients?
