If you're looking for an opportunity to broaden your selling capabilities and customer reach, use the information below to help you get started and develop your business selling activities on eBay.
1. Promote your business name and VAT registration
Registering to sell under your business name is a great way to build your online reputation within eBay's Community. Buyers who have a positive trading experience with sellers are more likely to buy from them again and recommend them to friends and family.
VAT
It is advisable that sellers state final prices for their items that include VAT - this ensures that buyers are fully aware of the costs they will incur.
If you have a qualified VAT Identification Number and use your eBay account exclusively for business, you may qualify to register as a VAT-exempt business with eBay.
Note: Falsification of information to evade payment of VAT may result in civil fines and criminal prosecution. eBay cooperates with givernment authorities in cases involving potential falsification of information to evade payment of VAT.
