VAT-free Purchase

Buying without VAT

Prices on this website include VAT. In two situations we can invoice an order without VAT: business purchases inside the EU with a valid VAT identification number, and exports to a delivery address outside the EU.

EU business customers (reverse charge)

If you are a VAT-registered business in an EU member state other than Bulgaria, your order can be invoiced under the reverse-charge procedure. The invoice is issued without VAT and you account for it yourself in your own country.

For this to apply, all of the following must be true:

  • The order is placed in the name of the company, with the company address as the billing address.
  • You provide a VAT identification number that is valid in the VIES database of the European Commission at the time of invoicing.
  • The delivery address is in an EU member state other than Bulgaria.

We check every VAT identification number in VIES before invoicing. If the number cannot be validated, the order is invoiced with VAT.

Deliveries outside the EU

Orders shipped to a delivery address outside the EU are invoiced without EU VAT as an export. Import duties, taxes and customs handling fees in the destination country are payable by the recipient, and we have no control over their amount.

How to request it

Please contact us before you pay, or immediately after placing the order, at info@audiophoria.com with:

  • Your company name and full billing address.
  • Your EU VAT identification number, including the country prefix.
  • Your order number, if the order has already been placed.

We confirm the details, validate the VAT identification number and issue the corrected invoice. Where an order has already been paid with VAT included, the VAT amount is refunded to the original payment method.

Good to know

VAT-free invoicing cannot be applied retroactively once an order has been completed and the invoice has been filed. If you are unsure whether your purchase qualifies, ask us before you order and we will confirm.
