New reverse charge on the sale of electricity and gas in Ireland

29 February 2016

On 1 January 2016 a new domestic reverse charge rule was introduced on the wholesale of gas and electricity supplies in Ireland.

This measure means that providers of electricity and gas no longer have to charge VAT on their supplies to certain customers, as it is now their customer’s responsibility to account for it.
