Intermediaries arranging such supplies are deemed recipients and taxable unless they (a) identify the supplier on invoices, (b) do not authorise charges or handle payments, (c) do not authorise delivery, and (d) do not set general terms. The supplier must obtain a single registration under a Simplified Registration Scheme; a domestic representative must register and pay tax, or the supplier may appoint a domestic appointee to pay if no representative exists.
