European VAT Registration and Exemption
If you're a Non-Bulgarian/Spanish VAT registered business based within the EU economic area you can avoid paying VAT on your purchase with us by taking the following steps:
Please enter your VALID VAT-ID when you place your order (the VAT-ID field is valid only when you select country within EU economic area). Requests to refund VAT on purchases made where there is a valid VAT number, but where the VAT-ID was not entered at the time of the purchase and the order is paid and shipped with invoice including VAT, will incur a EUR 30 admin fee to action the refund.
Please be very careful when you enter your VAT-ID. We recommend you to check if it is valid VAT-ID first at VIES web site as when you enter your order we do not do real time check. All the VAT-IDs are checked by our operators for second time in the VIES System before shipping though, so entering incorrect VAT-ID will lead to significant delay in your order processing and it may be hold for several days until we collect the not paid VAT. Some countries like Spain and Italy have "internal" VAT-IDs, which are not updated to VIES VAT-ID server. If you have such VAT-ID please do not enter it, as it's not a valid VAT-ID for EU VAT free purchase.
Payments
All orders with us have to be pre-paid. We do not offer any other terms.
BANK TRANSFER: You may transfer payment from your bank outside of the Bulgaria to our bank. All charges, made by your bank and our bank must be paid by you. If you have selected "Bank Wire Transfer", there has gone out a field with instructions on, with IBAN and SWIFT account details. Please use your order number as a reference for your payment, or we may not be able to identify your funds and process your order. Orders where payment has not been received 7 working days afte the order was placed will be cancelled. Please note that bank transfers usually take few business days to move the money from one account to other. We will not ship your order until your payment is verified by our bank.
