I have produced 2 invoices on different occasions and chose 20% VAT rate but the VAT amount shows as £0. Why is this happening? Anyone else experiencing this?
The VAT amount will show as zero if you selected the 20.0% RC CIS VAT on an invoice, as it is a reverse charge, @EmmaV1.
In QuickBooks Online, there are two 20% VAT codes applicable for sales, such as 20.0% RC CIS VAT and 20.0% S VAT. The 20.0% RC CIS VAT is not charged on the invoice, as your customer is responsible for accounting for the VAT directly to HMRC. If you mean to use the standard 20% rate, select 20.0% S VAT on your transaction for accurate calculation.
Also, you can review your Tax page in QuickBooks to better understand how each of them is calculated. Here's how:
If the correct VAT code is selected and the VAT amount still shows as zero, I suggest troubleshooting your browser to resolve unexpected issues caused by corrupted data. If the behavior continues, you can switch to a different supported and updated browser. It can help resolve problems that are specific to the browser you're currently using.

Hi
Definitely not applying an incorrect VAT code. I checked and double checked this.
I'm not sure how to troubleshoot the browser.
Someone mentioned that there may be display issues with invoice previews.
1 - I am not able to preview invoices.
2 - I printed the invoice and the VAT amount was showing as 0.00 even though 20% VAT was applied.
This has only happened twice in approximately 2 months.
I look forward to any help / thoughts.
