Q: What is VAT and to whom does it apply?
The VAT stands for Value Added Tax, a tax on consumer spending. It applies to all EU member states customers in the amount of 22% (Slovenian VAT law (ZDDV-1)) of the good's value. Your quotation will include VAT if you are a resident of a European Member State. Read more on pricing and other costs in our HOW TO ORDER tab.
Examples: VAT will not be charged if you come from Switzerland, Norway, US, Australia, etc.; VAT will be charged if you come from Italy, Austria, Spain, UK, Germany, France, Sweden etc.
Q: My company is VAT registered in one of the EU member states. Does VAT apply?
If you provide your valid VAT number, VAT will not be charged (VAT reverse charge in accordance with paragraph 23. of Slovenian VAT law and article 41 of VAT Directive).
Q: Are there any other costs and fees?
If you are a citizen of a European Member State your quotation will include VAT and (unless otherwise specified in your quote) shipping cost. There are no other costs or taxes.
