Customer requesting VAT invoice for an order

hi
i have a customer who bought an item which was dispatched via FBA.
They have now sent the following message via Amz:

Hi,
Please could you supply me with a VAT invoice for this purchase?
ORDER ID *******************
The following information must please be included on the VAT invoice in order for it to be compliant:

  • Your Business name and address
  • DATE OF ORDER
  • Your GB Business VAT registration number
  • Product Details/Item Title
  • The total price including VAT
  • The VAT rate applicable to the item
    Please note, with your express permission I can submit a “simplified invoice” to my accounts using an Amazon Receipt. To do this I will need you to reply giving permission and confirm your GB VAT number and business address.
    Please note, I will only be able to accept a VAT invoice for the order ID I have listed in this email.
    I appreciate your help and look forward to hearing from you.

How do i deal with this - i thought customers were able to print off their own VAT invoice via AMZ???

Any advice on this would be appreciated.

regards
Zainab

Reply via the app with a copy n paste of the steps for how they should do it. Just basically tell them how.
As long as I only reply thru the app and are polite, all should be fine. But do reply within the time limit required.

Unless you are registered for Amazon VAT calculation service you need to provide invoices.
