The general rule is that it is outside the scope but there are provisions for where the services are used and enjoyed.
HM Revenue & Customs
In section 4.8.2;
"No UK VAT would be chargeable on supplies that take place outside the UK."
5.7 Exported services
Some supplies of services to overseas customers are zero-rated, but many are standard-rated. You will find more about this in Section 29.
7.7 Values expressed in a foreign currency
For VAT purposes, amounts of money must always be expressed in sterling.
29.1
Remember, if you incur input tax that is related to exempt supplies as well as taxable supplies, you are termed as partly exempt and you will probably not be able to claim all your input tax. See Section 13 for further information.
