We are in the process of opening an auto-entrepreneur micro enterprise to sell our products (well-being/cosmetics) to our European customers. We have lived and worked from Germany until now but are now registered as French residents. When we worked in Germany we had to charge VAT to every customer that came from an EU country. Since the auto-entrepreneur has no TVA number, we were told that we are not allowed/obliged to charge VAT from our French auto-entrepreneur. We need to be 100% sure that this is correct. We want to avoid the German tax man to come after us demanding missed VAT income.
