So far so good! There were some teething issues with the data upload and I
am hoping they will improve the guidance information as it is quite
confusing.
The key thing is to make sure your Shopify store is set up for Registration
based taxes. There was a bit of confusion with Shopify Support when I asked
to set this up but we got there eventually.
Other considerations are how you send your parcels as I think I mentioned
the Post Office Drop and Go service does not support IOSS shipments. We
have moved to the Royal Mail Click and Drop service to ensure electronic
customs data can be included.
Our only other issue with the process is that we are manually creating
Commercial Invoices for each order. There will be ways to automate this but
we can’t justify the outlay at this point.
Now we are just waiting to hear what happens when parcels enter the EU and
if any handling charges are applied!
