VAT for in-person and virtual events

Are you dealing with B2C or B2B transactions? Are you offering hotel stays and dinners as part of your ticket package? Don’t overlook your supplies and the vendors providing them — are your suppliers in the same country and VAT registered?

Hosting events online opens the door to a global audience, but selling tickets internationally can introduce extra VAT obligations. Since January 2025, tickets for livestreamed events are required to include VAT for EU attendees.

Event VAT FAQs

Common questions answered

Is VAT applicable to event tickets?

The necessity to charge VAT on tickets depends on the customer type (B2B or B2C), the location of the event, and the type of event itself.

Is VAT charged on Virtual Events?

Charging VAT on tickets for virtual events may be required based on your customer’s location, whether the transaction is B2B or B2C, and the nature of the event. Since January 2025, EU rules have become stricter for livestreamed events.

Is VAT applicable to fundraising event tickets?

In both the UK and the EU, tickets for fundraising events organized by registered charities are VAT exempt — however certain conditions must be fulfilled, and complications arise with international ticket sales. We recommend seeking professional advice before relying on this exemption.
