Sales Tax:
The sales of vitamins and supplements on our website may be subject to sales tax depending on the shipping destination. In the European Union (EU), Value-Added Tax (VAT) is applied to most goods, including dietary supplements. The standard VAT rate in the EU varies by country, with an average rate around 20%. Customers are responsible for ensuring compliance with their local tax regulations.
For international customers outside the EU, import duties and taxes, including VAT, may apply depending on the destination country. These charges are not included in the price of the products sold on our website and are the responsibility of the customer. We recommend checking with your local customs office for detailed information.
VAT for EU Customers:
For customers within the European Union, VAT is automatically calculated and included in the product price at checkout. The applicable VAT rate depends on the shipping destination within the EU.
International Orders:
Orders shipped outside the EU may be subject to import duties, taxes, and other charges imposed by the destination country. These charges vary based on the product and shipping destination and are not included in the purchase price or shipping cost. Customers are advised to check with their local customs office for more information on potential charges.
Exemptions:
In certain jurisdictions, dietary supplements may be exempt from sales tax. For example, in some states in the United States, specific dietary supplements may not be subject to sales tax depending on the labeling and classification of the product (e.g., labeled as “Supplement Facts” instead of “Nutrition Facts”). However, these exemptions vary widely by state and country, and it is the customer’s responsibility to verify whether a tax exemption applies in their location.
Customs and Import Duties:
When ordering from outside the EU, customers may be liable for customs duties, import taxes, or other local fees upon arrival in the destination country. These charges are not included in our prices and are payable by the customer. If applicable, the customer must ensure compliance with all legal requirements in the destination country, including payment of duties and taxes.
Order Processing and Delivery:
Please note that delays in customs clearance may occur, which can affect the delivery time of your order. We are not responsible for delays caused by customs clearance procedures.
