Delivery addresses within the EU (BREXIT UPDATE) – No additional fees to pay when you order from Nelson & Forbes in EU Countries:

Orders to be delivered to an EU address will be shipped with import duties and taxes already paid by Nelson & Forbes (including any import duty, import VAT and handling fees due) before they are dispatched (Delivered Duty Paid). This means that the price you see on our website is the total price you pay – there will be NO ADDITIONAL charges when your order is imported into your EU country.

Please note that you will be charged the ‘VAT inclusive’ price shown on the website. Please note that as we ship your order Duty Paid, it will not be possible for the customer to recover any VAT paid by Nelson & Forbes as part of the duty and taxes paid on the customer’s behalf.

If a VAT registered customer wishes to recover the VAT paid when importing their order, please contact us prior to placing your order, to arrange to make your purchase without Nelson & Forbes paying import duty and taxes on your behalf.

VAT Exempt Orders

All items ordered for delivery to an address outside of the UK are not subject to UK VAT (UK sales tax). Our website shows prices both Including VAT and Excluding VAT for your convenience.

All items ordered for delivery to an address outside of the UK and EU will be charged the “Excluding VAT” price shown on the product page. This applies regardless of where the billing address is (even if it is within the UK or EU).

Orders delivered to EU addresses will be charged the “Including VAT” price, as they will be delivered duty paid.

Please note that if you are logged into the site (you have purchased previously and have an account) and your default delivery address is outside of the UK and EU, you will still see two prices: Including VAT and Excluding VAT. However, you will note that they are both the same. Both prices will be the Excluding VAT price. This is because our website recognises that your default delivery address is in a nom VAT country, and so it only shows you a non VAT price.

Wherever you live in the world (including a non VAT country), when you order an item for delivery to an address within the UK or EU, you will be charged the VAT inclusive price, no matter where you live.

If you have questions about this, please do let us know!
