If you own an european VAT Id we will ship excluding VAT as an "intra-Community supply of goods" after checking your data. Because in this case we need an export certificate we will send as registered letter or parcel so there are higher shipping costs. We will inform you about the additional costs.

Switzerland

Shipping to Switzerland generally excludes VAT. Because in this case we need an export certificate we will send as registered letter or parcel so there are higher shipping costs.
The following overview includes all of our costs (of course not toll and VAT you have to pay). Given prices are without VAT.

Unfortunately shipping of parcels to Switzerland is much more expensive than in EC countries, so we have to include these costs in the shipping costs.
