  Check the shipping address, that order probably is going to North Ireland, and
that is considered as a sale inside the EU with VAT included in your prices.

Wow that could be the reason, it's the city of Beragh which is in Northern
Ireland, tricky one. Thanks!

That will be it. NI is still partly in and partly out of EU, it is still a real
mess.

Wow.Really?

I assumed it would be the Republic of Ireland still in EU and any address with
a UK postcode, isn't.

i.e. it's a Northern Ireland address, which would have the same rules as
the rest of the UK.

And with Beragh being in the North, we certainly do have a right royal mess!!

It’s called the Norther Ireland Protocol and it’s due to the Good Friday Agreement
of 1998.  The situation was also referred to as the Irish Backstop and was the
main problem of the Brexit negociations.

Simplified:
On the one hand, Brexit means there’s now a border (more specifically controls
and customs) between UK and EU.  On the other hand, there can be no border between
Eire and NI (Good Friday Agreement).  The solution of having a border between
NI and the rest of UK is, well, “complicated.”

NI is partly 'in' (the EU) if the goods are sent from the EU and partly
'out' if they are send from the UK.

Of course there is a rather large tax issue if goods are sent from either UK
or EU into NI and then moved on to the EU or UK respectively. Hence the ongoing
(and current again) talks about this.

One can probably tell how confused I still am from my original message. I can't
even figure myself what I was trying to say earlier!

Thanks for nearly clearing it up though you two that's got to be the
most precise answer to the the situation I've come across since Brexit -
short, sweet, and clear for laymen like me

One more question to know if I understand it fully : should I be looking at property
prices / rent in Northern Ireland? Our sales to the EU have fallen off them great
white cliffs down south. We miss you
