The changes ‘assist business by removing or largely reducing current VAT obstacles to the use of electronic invoices, simplifying a number of existing VAT invoicing requirements and removing some existing administrative burdens associated with VAT invoices’.
Many of the changes are already included in existing UK legislation. A technical note outlines the minor changes needed to implement the changes and invites comments by 12 July on draft legislation.
