Do I need to pay VAT for export outside of the EU?
If you are a non-EU customer, you need to make a deposit for the total VAT amount. We will prepare the EX-A declaration needed for export.
You can request the VAT refund after your purchased vehicle leaves the EU and the EX-A export declaration is officially registered by the EU border inspection point.
To get your VAT refund, first check the car’s export status on MRN Follow-up (for international movements only).
Once we receive proof of export from the transit agency, we will refund the VAT deposit to the same account you used for the car payment.
