Do I need to pay any extra Tax on the price I see?

FOR A EUROPEAN COMPANY WITH A VALID VAT NUMBER

In Europe, if sales are happening to another company with a valid VAT Number, orders have 0% VAT (Value Added Tax) and no other tax rate applies, however, there are exceptions:
– For importing in Switzerland need to add local VAT Tax 8% for goods from Europe
– For importing in Norway need to add the local VAT Tax 25% for goods from Europe
Based on the above, if your company has a valid VAT number, the price you see on the website is the final price with all Tax covered, except Switzerland and Norway, where above above-stated Tax needs to be added to the invoice.

PRIVATE PERSON FROM EUROPE

As a rule in Europe, if sales are happening to private customers, we need to add the local VAT rate from our country to the invoice, which is 21% in Latvia.

FOR CUSTOMERS OUTSIDE EUROPE

For now, each case needs to be evaluated individually – please kindly send your inquiry, and we will check carefully together with our logistics partners for the best options.
