  Dear BrickLink members,

Starting Tuesday May 11, BrickLink will enable VAT collection for goods imported
into the UK and Northern Ireland to comply with the new Brexit marketplace rules.
Below is an overview of what this will entail.

Changes at a glance:

* The UK will be excluded from the EU country list and will have its own VAT
regime (like Norway). UK buyers will see VAT exclusive prices from EU sellers
and EU buyers will see VAT exclusive prices from UK sellers. UK buyers will see
VAT inclusive prices from UK sellers only.

* BrickLink will collect and remit VAT on orders up to a value of £135 imported
into the UK and sold to consumers. There will no longer be a VAT exemption for
small consignments up to £15. In this case, the payment method will be restricted
to onsite methods only.

What about orders sold to business not to consumers? The VAT shouldn't be
charged for those.

  
* UK VAT will be added during the checkout process or at the receipt of the final
invoice and will not be included in the item price.

* Where BrickLink is responsible for collecting VAT on orders sent to a UK delivery
address, this amount will be shown separately at checkout.


What this means for you:

* For each qualified transaction, BrickLink will provide a separate VAT invoice
that can be used as proof to customs that VAT has been sufficiently collected.

* In case of refunds, we encourage sellers to use the BrickLink refund feature
to ensure the correct amount of VAT gets refunded. The refund page can be accessed
from the Issue Refund link on the order detail page.

* If you are a non-UK seller and you want to sell goods to UK buyers, you should
opt in to at least one of BrickLink’s onsite payment methods.


An email with this same communication will be sent out later today. For additional
information, please refer to our new Brexit Marketplace Changes Help Page:

1) do you know if sellers have to provide any extra Documentation when sending
to UK?

2) Norway also have "new" rules for import. Bricklink should add VAT for orders
imported to Norway. The rules was applied in 2020, but they've made temporary
exceptions which have been extended due to Corona(Bricklink are within the exception,
but it may suddenly change). Does bricklink have plans for complying to new Norwegian
vat rules as well?

Hello Russell,

This looks rather good

Thank you,

Good to see we can ship to the UK again without having to explain importcharges


Just 1 question, can we see the printversion of the invoice?
We normally never print out invoices only use the customforms from our carrier,
and i hope these do not take to much unneeded ink and paper,

Again, it looks great,

Janet
