Full VAT invoices with every Revenue field, the right rate per line, intra-EU reverse charge handled, and fast SEPA or card payments. All on one flat plan.
Irish invoicing means VAT invoices with all the fields Revenue expects, the correct rate on each line, and the right treatment for EU customers. Billbooks handles the compliance so you can get back to the work.
You must register once turnover passes EUR 42,500 for services or EUR 85,000 for goods. The standard VAT rate is 23%, with reduced rates of 13.5% and 9%, a 4.8% livestock rate, and a zero rate on most food and children clothing.
An Irish VAT invoice must carry a sequential number, the issue date, your name, address and VAT number, the customer name and address, a description of the supply, the VAT rate and amount, and the total payable.
No. Billbooks produces compliant Irish VAT invoices and keeps the records behind them, but it does not file VAT3 returns with Revenue. You or your accountant do that. Billbooks is invoicing software, not a filing service.
Yes. Billbooks lets you set the tax treatment per line, so you can issue a zero-rated invoice to a VAT-registered business elsewhere in the EU with the reverse charge noted, and invoice in euros or the client currency.
The right VAT rate per line
Billbooks holds the 23%, 13.5%, 9% and 0% rates and totals the VAT per rate, so a mixed invoice adds up correctly.
EU reverse charge handled
For VAT-registered customers in other EU countries, Billbooks shows both VAT numbers and the correct reverse-charge notation.

Ireland has a standard VAT rate of 23%, with reduced rates of 13.5% and 9%, a 4.8% livestock rate, and a zero rate on things like most food and children clothing. You must register for VAT once turnover passes EUR 42,500 for services or EUR 85,000 for goods. For business customers in other EU countries the reverse charge usually applies, so you show both VAT numbers and the correct notation rather than charging Irish VAT.

Ireland has a 23% standard rate, reduced rates of 13.5% and 9%, a 4.8% livestock rate, and a zero rate on items such as most food and children's clothing. Billbooks applies the rate per line so a mixed invoice stays correct.
Ireland sets separate VAT registration thresholds: EUR 42,500 for services and EUR 85,000 for goods. A business supplying both needs to watch whichever applies to its activity, and register once either is passed.
Under the reverse charge you issue the invoice without Irish VAT, show both VAT numbers and state that the reverse charge applies. The customer accounts for the VAT in their own country. Billbooks sets the tax treatment per line to support this.

You must register for VAT once turnover passes EUR 42,500 for services or EUR 85,000 for goods in a 12-month period. Below that, registration is optional.
