• From 1 April 2021, UK traders, other than NI traders, will no longer have access to the EU electronic portal for UK claims
• UK traders, other than NI traders, claiming Irish VAT expenses incurred in supplies of Goods and Services made will be subject to Irish rules. The existing Irish process for non-EU businesses incurring Irish VAT expenses under the EU 13th Directive-VAT claims from outside EU will be used.
