No. The exemption for supplies inside the EU does not cover a margin sale.
No. The exemption for intra-Community supplies does not apply to goods you sell under the margin scheme. Sell a margin good to a French or Dutch dealer and it stays a margin sale, with Belgian margin VAT still due — even though your buyer has a valid VAT number and the piece really does cross the border.
That is the trap: the customer shows a VAT number, and habit says you then invoice without VAT. For a margin sale that is wrong. Your buyer can deduct nothing either — there is no deductible VAT on your invoice — but he may resell the piece under his own margin scheme.
If you would rather use the normal rules, you may: you can choose to sell a piece outside the margin scheme. All the usual conditions then apply — a valid VAT number, proof of transport, box 46 and the intra-Community listing.
Source: directive 2006/112/EC, article 139(3) and article 4(a) · Belgian VAT Code, article 39bis, first paragraph, 1° and article 58, § 4. Checked on 29 August 2026.
This is an explanation, not tax or legal advice. Put your own situation to your accountant.
No. A margin sale belongs neither in box 46 nor in the intra-Community listing. You declare it like any other margin sale, even when the piece goes to a dealer in another EU country. Box 46 and the listing belong to the exempt intra-Community supply — and that exemption is precisely what you are not applying here.
No separate VAT amount — that is the hallmark of a margin invoice — and a reference to the special scheme for second-hand goods, stating that the VAT is not deductible. Your customer therefore sees a single total price. Check which exact wording is compulsory in your country.
Vintro Pro keeps, per piece, what you paid, when, and where it came from. Your stock list and your margin VAT build themselves while you work.
