I just sold a minifigure to a new buyer living in the UK. Normally I also receive
a VAT invoice, that I have to attach to the letter. This time I did not receive
such a VAT invoice, so my question is, has something changed where a VAT invoice
is no longer required, or is this a bug/issue with Bricklink?

Was VAT charged on the order? It would not have been if, for example, the order
was £135 or more.

No, it was only 75 euros.

Is the buyer in Northern Ireland?

If the buyer is in Northern Ireland (which is still part of the EU VAT zone),
they would pay EU VAT, not UK import VAT.  And as you (musen2100) don’t seem
to be VAT-registered, that means they just pay your prices.

That is the explanation, thank you so much!
