Which amount should I declare on the declaration trimestrielle?
I am now completing my 3rd Declaration Trimestrielle and I am not sure I did the last one (2nd quarter) correctly. I have been declaring my income according to the date when I actually receive it in my bank account from my clients, as my accountant advised. However, I send them an invoice in advance, with the cost in sterling and euros at the exchange rate on the date of the invoice. Because all my clients so far have been English, they pay me in sterling.
Since the exchange rate changes by the time they pay me, the amount in euros on the invoice is different from the amount in euros I receive. Please can you tell me which amount in euros I should declare on the Declaration Trimestrielle? Does it matter if it is different on the invoices I send out?
