I was just suggesting that the fact that there is so little on the invoice indicates that the supplier is not VAT registered and that smaller invoices from VAT registetred business might not be blindingly clear about their VAT status.

But if the op is VAT registered, it does make a difference to the OP.
Not if they aren't charging him VAT. He has no reason to assume they're VAT registered, because they haven't quoted a VAT number, or charged VAT separately. Under those circumstances, it doesn't make a difference to the OP. He must account for UK input VAT where he has been invoiced for it. In this case he hasn't been.
