The Chamber’s emerging industries committee believe that a number of firms may choose to move their e-commerce presence to Guernsey to avoid the complications.
Phil Balderson, who chairs the emerging industries group, said that in order to get ready for GST on the proposed start date of 6 May, firms would have to carry out software amendments as well as prepare for the quarterly returns.
‘We think a lot of the
e-commerce operations are ceasing to trade from here,’ said Mr Balderson.
