* For a business (taxable person) = either the country where it is registered or the country where it has fixed premises receiving the service.

For the definition of ‘electronic services see the Explanatory Notes below, in particular under points 1.3; 2.3.3; and 2.4.3.
The effects of this are as follows:
EU BUSINESSES supplying:

No VAT charged.
Customer must account for the tax (reverse-charge mechanism).
2. Consumer in another EU country
Must charge VAT in the EU country where the customer belongs (not where the business is based).
3. Business or consumer outside the EU
No EU VAT charged.
But if the service is effectively used & enjoyed in an EU country, that country can decide to levy VAT.

1. Business in the EU
No VAT charged.
Customer must account for the tax (reverse-charge mechanism).
2. Consumer in the EU (telecoms, broadcasting or electronic services)
Must charge VAT in the EU country where the customer belongs.
