VAT Registration in the UK
Hello guys,
I have recently launched my first product on Amazon CO.UK however, my account was deactivated as no VAT number was informed. Can I as an individual that sells on Amazon register for VAT or do I need to officially register/open a business in my country of residence (Rep. of Ireland) in order to register for VAT in the UK? I am so lost with all these regulations and would VERY much appreciate any input you may have.
Thank you in advance.

You should be registered as a business on Amazon if you are buying or making goods to sell for a profit. You need to be registered either in Ireland or UK for tax purposes.
You need to be UK vat registered because you have sent stock here which is what has triggered the requirement.

I presume you have sent stock into UK amazon warehouses ?
