    Hi All,

    Quick one. I am in the UK with an adsense account. Before I wasn't being paid VAT as I was dealing with Google in America.

    Having looked recently I'm now in contract with Google Ireland. Should Google now be paying me the VAT also? I am VAT registered btw.

    I've checked the adsense site and rather than use plain English they go on about the reverse charge mechanism. I'm confused on whether that's the system where VAT is not paid across difft EU countries if the VAT number is provided.

    Can anyone shed any light?

    Thanks :)
