I am a foreign company can I purchase VAT-exempt?
Yes, it is possible to purchase on Alberoshop.it in VAT exemption if your company is registered in the European VIES system (VAT Information Exchange System).
VAT exemption is only available for companies with a valid and active VAT number within the European Union.
Key requirement: VIES registration
To be able to purchase VAT-exempt, your VAT number must be:
- active
- valid
- registered with VIES
You can independently verify your status here: https://ec.europa.eu/taxation_customs/vies
What to do before purchasing
Before completing the order, contact us via the form: https://alberoshop.it/en/contatti
Providing:
- VAT number
- Company name
- reference (if applicable) to the order or products of interest
Our team will verify the validity of the VAT number and enable you to purchase VAT-exempt.
VAT verification required
By law, every VAT-exempt purchase must be verified through the official European Commission system (VIES).
Only after confirming validity will we be able to process the order without VAT.
If the VAT number is not valid
If your VAT number:
- is not registered with VIES
- appears inactive
- has inconsistent data
it will not be possible to apply VAT exemption until regularisation with your tax authority, but it will be possible to purchase with a regular invoice at 22%.
