Tax code zero rated import from EU

Question

Hello 
 We import standard and zero rated goods from the EU. 
 We intend to use Tax code T18 - Import of goods - postponed VAT for the standard rated items. 
 I've checked the new list of T codes but there doesn't seem to be a tax code for zero rated goods imported from EU. 
 Am I right in assuming I need to create a tax code based on code T19 but with a value of 0%. 
 Any help would be much appreciated. 
 Regards All, 
 Sandra

Hello Sandra, 
 I'm sorry but we can only provide general rather than specific guidance on the tax codes.You should take professional advice if you require specific guidance on your individual circumstances. We can however provide our tax code finder guide which will help you identify the correct tax codes to use.

Hello Pat 
 I used the Tax Code finder wizard in sage knowledgebase and eventually it led me to the resolution 'Create your own tax code'. I'd really rather someone else had done it for me!

Which tax code to use 
 
 We recommend you create a new tax code which is a copy of the T19 tax code and with the Rate set to 0.00%. For full details of how T19 is configured, please refer to our default tax codes guide .

Haven't actually bitten the bullet and created the tax code yet, but I think that's the route I'll take. 
 All the best!
