It will take a few clicks, Usereben. Let me guide you.

 

You can follow these steps on how to display VAT in the invoice:

  1. Click the Gear icon.
  2. Go to Custom form styles.
  3. Select the template, then click Edit.
  4. Go to the Content tab.
  5. Click the Pencil icon in the second or middle section of the template.
  6. Tick the VAT box.
  7. Click Done.

Hi,

I've done what you've said but I don't seem to have that box to tick. I have everything from Rate, Quantity, SKU, etc. but nothing for VAT.

I'm currently using the month free trial. Does this affect the option to add the customer VAT number?

Let's enter first the VAT number to appears in your invoices. I'll show you how to do it:  

 

  1. From the left navigation bar, choose Taxes.
  2. Click the Edit VAT drop down then click Edit Settings.
  3. Make necessary changes then enter the VAT number.
  4. Press Save.

  

You can also visit this link for more information about getting started with VAT: Set up and use automated VAT in QuickBooks Online.  

 

Then, you can follow my colleague's steps above to appear the VAT details on invoices.  

 

Keep me posted if you have any other questions or clarifications. I'm ready to help. Have a nice day!
