For purchases in Dutch auctions of lots won through business accounts that are exported to countries outside the EU within 3 months following the purchase date we can only process a VAT refund request when you send us an official EX-A document. You can contact the customs in your country to arrange an EX-A document. You need to fill in an EX-A document per auction and send it back to us, together with the original invoice to which your request relates, within three months after closing.
Troostwijk Auctions offers this as a service to customers. Normally you would have to apply for a temporary VAT number with our tax authorities and reclaim the VAT in your own name.
Please send the completely filled out and signed documents to info@troostwijkauctions.com
Buyers from the UK and Northern Ireland must pay the full amount including VAT due to Brexit. VAT cannot be reclaimed and buyers can contact the customs/tax office in Heerlen. Telephone: +31 45 574 30 31.
