Questions

Do I charge Irish VAT to a business customer in another EU country?

Usually not for services: the customer accounts for the VAT under the reverse charge. Untick the tax option, show their VAT number and add a note that the reverse charge applies. Check Revenue's guidance for goods and special cases.

Which VAT rate applies to my work?

Most goods and services are at 23%. Some are at 13.5%, 9% or 0%; Revenue's VAT rates database lists them.

What if I invoice in pounds or dollars?

You can, but the invoice must also show the VAT amounts in euro.
