Place of supply of services
In order to define the place of supply of services, you first have to find out if the recipient is a taxable person (e.g. an entrepreneur or a public legal entity who is identified for VAT purposes) or a non-taxable person (e.g. private person). Second, you have to look at the topic of the supply of goods.
