Value-added Tax in Germany
The value-added tax exemption will be discontinued for some postal services from July 1, 2010. You will find all the information about the topic of value-added tax on this page.
Most of our products will remain VAT-exempt.
For example:- Standardbrief, Kompaktbrief, Großbrief, Maxibrief, postcards
- EINSCHREIBEN (registered items)
- INFOBRIEF (Infoletter)
- STREIFBANDZEITUNG (wrapper-packed newspapers)
- and all your shipments to destinations outside the European Union regardless of the selected product.
However, some products will be liable to value-added tax from July 1, 2010.
For example:- INFOPOST (Infomail)
- NACHNAHME (cash on delivery)
- POSTVERTRIEBSSTÜCK (preferred periodicals) and PRESSESENDUNG (standard periodicals).
When invoicing customers outside Germany, the reverse-charge-procedure may be used. In this case please coordinate with your tax consultant. If you are based in an EU member state, please provide us with your value-added tax identification number (VAT ID No.). This will save you from lengthy tax refunds.
