As you can see, I came at this from the other end in that question.

"Reverse charge VAT" is the expression in the UK:
https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/vat-notice-735-va...

In Ireland:
http://www.revenue.ie/en/tax/vat/guide/reverse-charge.html

And at EU level:
"An option for Member States to introduce a general reverse charge system"
