Hello, @Samjw.
Let me share additional details on the available VAT codes in QuickBooks that you can use.
Once you have set up VAT in your QuickBooks account. the system automatically sets up a list of common VAT codes for you. If you ship goods to a customer in an EC Member State, you should not charge VAT if your customer supplied a valid VAT registration number. However, if you purchase goods from another business that is registered for VAT in an EC Member State, you should not be charged VAT if you give the supplier your VAT registration number. You can read through this article to learn more about how it works: EC VAT codes.
Also, I'd recommend visiting the HMRC's website or give them a call so you'd be guided properly on which VAT code to use and when whilst dealing with EU sales.
Lastly, I've added these articles to help you manage VAT in QuickBooks:
Let us know here if you have other questions or concerns. I'm always here to lend a hand.
