Without wishing to get political I see that the new situation the UK finds itself means buying a programme from abroad just became 20% more expensive on eBay...ouch |

Wouldn't they be classed as magazines and zero rated? |

That’s a Possible UK interpretation.
But clearly the EU sees it differently, and it’s their interpretation that applies here. |

Bit over my head, does that mean selling as well as buying abroad or just buying from abroad ? |

I believe it is levied on a purchase when buying items from European registered sellers. |

Well if it is VAT then surely you have to be registered to charge it and so become an unpaid tax collector (as I was once) for what ever government in whatever country you live in?
Import tax/customs charges are a different matter and will invariably levied by companies according to their rates. I don't quite see buying a programme from say French Ebay for say £10 would be much worth bothering but I could be wrong if it all starts to get Brexit nasty? |

From what I understand (and I am no expert in any way) it is eBay who collects the 20% on every purchase of any value from an EU registered seller to UK and visa versa. I don’t know if this will remain (lol) but not sure why this is the case when my understanding was the “deal” allowed tariff/tax free imports for certain goods? Oh well, I will “leave” it there |

It appears that eBay has fixed the issue of VAT being levied against football programmes from non-UK sellers.
I had emailed their UK MD a few days ago, and his office responded that their VAT team had fixed it. _________________ https://www.flickr.com/photos/footballprogrammes/albums |

Thanks for that. I notice that 20% still applies for tickets on sale from the EU. Is that correct? |

Thanks, from memory when I have bought a ticket at auction Vat has not been applied. |
