The VAT ID is relevant for businesses in the EU. If you provide a valid VAT ID during the checkout process and it is validated, the order will be processed without VAT.
If no VAT ID is provided, local VAT will be automatically added.
In some cases, the VAT ID cannot be validated, such as in cases of VAT exemption or lack of registration for intra-community trade. In these instances, local VAT will be applied.
If real-time validation is not possible, we reserve the right to request VAT retrospectively if the VAT ID is valid. Once the invoice is issued, retroactively submitting a VAT ID is no longer possible.
