Thanks for the tip :)

It seems allright if you are doing all the duty procedures as well.

Do you verify the given VAT number to be legit and matching through the VIES system : http://ec.europa.eu/taxation_customs/vies/

Do you keep track of the 2 non contradictory proofs of the receiving country end ? Article 24d : http://eur-lex.europa.eu/legal-content/EN/TXT/HTML/?uri=CELE... Do you keep this localisation proofs for the 10 mandated years ? Can you prove this saved data have not been tampered ? Do you have an audit log on this data ? Do you comply with directive 95/46/CE for the protection and treatment of this data ?

Hopefully for you, you are only dealing with VAT registered corporates, so you are on the easy side. Now imagine the nightmare if you are for example selling e-books or saas or traditional software to VAT / non VAT registered corporates and individuals wolrdwide. It's not so easy anymore.
