ReverseCharge - Company in EU requiered #30575

Bug

The reverse charge procedure for VAT payments has a flaw.

At the moment, this is only possible if the supplier is based in the EU. However, it is possible (at least in the meantime) to obtain an EU VAT number without having to be based in the EU.

Copied from Google: "If your company is based outside the EU, e.g. in the USA, China, and you wish to sell goods or services within the EU, you must register within the European Union to obtain EU VAT and EORI numbers. The formalities for VAT registration are largely the same whether your business is based in the EU or not."

Here is the example of Canva Pty Ltd from Australia. They have the VAT number: EU372042198 This is what triggerd my suggestion.

There is no entry for VAT in the accounts because the country is not part of the EU.

I think it would be better here if "is in the EU" is not taken into account. In the end, the accountant has to know when to activate the reverse charge procedure.
