How to buy without VAT (0% VAT)
I. Eligibility
For regular ( RO rezident companies, RO rezident individuals and EU and NON-EU customers), according to the law, we charge a 19% Romanian VAT tax. All prices shown in the websites, already include the 19% VAT tax.
However, there is an exception, to buy with 0% VAT. The exception is available only for EUR registered commercial customers (companies) who fullfill the following 2 conditions:
1. The company is registered in a country that belongs to the European Union (EU), different than Romania.
2. The company is registered in the European VIES program. To check this, go to the following link: http://ec.europa.eu/taxation_customs/vies/ . Just choose your country and fill your company code.
II. How To
If your company is eligible, you will get a reduction of 19% of the prices shown on the site, by following the next steps:
Step 1. Add products to the shopping cart
Step 2. Register your account using a valid EU VAT number
Step 3. Go to checkout page.
Step 4. Finalize order.
III. Important notes:
1.There are no limits on which to buy without VAT tax.
2. Shipping fees will have the same value as for regular users, though the printed invoice will show correctly that there is 0% VAT applied for it. There are two reasons for this. The first one is that the shipping fees are paid to a local company, to which the 19% VAT is paid, and the second is that most of the time, the real shipping fees paid, are higher than shown on the website. So basically, the shipping value will remain the same though the VAT will be zero.
3. The legal and official invoice will be the printed version, which will be sent in the package. The invoice has the 0% VAT marked, plus the companies financial identification codes, for accounting reasons.
