Back again with another post office question:

I sold something through eBay. The buyer, located in Europe, paid VAT to eBay as part of the transaction.

The post office website says, for this situation (IOSS through registered marketplace):

Tell the branch you've sold the item through an IOSS registered marketplace so we can ensure the correct IOSS number is allocated

I tried two branches and neither knew what this meant.

So my question is: what is an IOSS number, and how should the post office be allocating it?

I'm guessing that what you are after is an EORI (as opposed to IOSS) number, which your recipient should be able to provide you with.

Cheers. However I thought eori numbers were for businesses importing and exporting from the EU, not individuals.

But in any case, the quote in my post is verbatim from the post office website. So it's them asking for an IOSS number...
