TAXES & CURRENCIES
TAX, VAT, GST
The price you see in your cart may change once you enter your shipping address.
This is because taxes like VAT and GST vary by location, and we can only calculate them accurately after you've provided your address.
CHECKOUT CURRENCY
We process payments in your local currency.
The exchange rate is alwasy fair, and if you notice a price difference at checkout, it is most likely due to the added taxes, and not an exchange rate discrepancy.
EU
VAT is included in the price of all shipments to the EU. This follows EU regulations but is easily confused with being higher priced, or
Exchange Rates:
It's common for customers to mistake the inclusion of VAT in the final price for an unfavorable exchange rate. This isn't accurate. To verify the exchange rate, you need to deduct the VAT from the subtotal first.
Example
UK < £ 135.-
Orders below £ 135.- will have UK VAT added directly to the product prices.
The order will ship directly to your door from the Netherlands without any additional duties, taxes or fees to be paid.
NOTE:
A line below the total will show how much of the order is VAT.
UK > £ 135.-
Orders with a total value above £ 135.- don't include VAT.
VAT, duties and postal fees will likely be due upon receipt. This is due to the UK de minimis threhold or £135.- being reached.
