It applies only to professional commercial transactions (taxable persons) and not to private individuals (non-taxable persons).<\/p>\n<p>The VAT rate differs from one European country to another, which is why the intra-EU VAT was introduced to facilitate trade between member countries. The major difference brought by this intra-community concept is the change of the notions of import and export in favor of acquisition and delivery.
