This looks like a nightmare for small European businesses selling digital products. Thankfully I should be shielded from the worst of it it because: -my business is already registered for VAT -my payment processor (Avangate) take care of all the VAT issues

Have Avangate issued anything to customers about the changes? It would be interesting to know how they are dealing with it on behalf of customers.

Currently does the system allow you to sell to VAT registered businesses in other EU countries ex-VAT and deal with the EC Sales list?

Avangate told me in an email that they will be compliant.

They handle all the collection of VAT and (presumably) do the EC sales list (that's not my problem). I still have to do my own EC sales list for the payments I get from them (but thats only 1 per month) and any sales I make direct (not many).
