Personnally, I'll bite the bullet... just wait a little more between buys to have a smaller ratio of tax over price paid. Anyway I have some mandatory item to get, to go on.exxos wrote: ↑Tue Jul 06, 2021 5:19 pm I can see my EU sales starting to rapidly drop once people realise they are going to get charged. But if people want the goods they will just have to pay the VAT charges. If people do not pay the charges and the package will bounce back to me and if it starts causing a lot of problems then I will have to think seriously about not shipping to EU any more.

Re: VAT charges to EU states
I have no idea what's going on then. Normally they don't let you have the package until taxes are paid. I guess they could send a bill later but I thinks it's rare in my experience..olivier.jan wrote: ↑Fri Jul 09, 2021 11:43 am Just received a package from Exxos this morning and it was delivered as usual, no VAT or fees required.

Just because a lot of people agree on something, doesn't make it a fact. ~exxos ~

Re: VAT charges to EU states
To bump this thread. Has anyone yet got charged import VAT to EU states ?
AFAIK nobody yet has been charged VAT. I still can't wrap my head around it all. I can only assume as I am selling from the UK its down to the EU if they charge VAT or not. I assume they do on USA imports, so it would be the same for UK..?!
Alkexpress charge VAT now, but that's a seller outside of the UK. I'm not VAT registered in the UK. So I do not charge VAT or can I claim it back. I think the government sites seem to assume UK companies are VAT registered. But as a exporter from the UK, it would still fall on EU states to collect VAT, but they do not seem to be charging it.. Which makes no sense at all.

Re: VAT charges to EU states
Some who bought EPROM emus from me got charged... Denmark or Sweden IIRC and France I think it was. Germany they went straight through no charges.

Sent a parcel to France and it got also charged.
Re: VAT charges to EU states
So this is even more ridiculous..
Some stuff I purchased from aliexpress.. Clearly playing the tax charges..
And now UPS send me a bill as well..
So £129.05 goods, and 70.56 in tax charges!! So basically a 55% markup in tax and charges

Re: VAT charges to EU states
I have emailed them, but UPS seemed to have "gone to the dogs" over the past couple of years. I just know I will end up paying it otherwise I will not get my package because that is how businesses work these days

Re: VAT charges to EU states
Yeah UPS have been a real pain in my arse recently. They love taking money from you, but to get it back from them even when they admit fault is a nightmare. I've stopped using them myself for posting out.
