News about our shippingpolicies!
Shipping Whisky within the European Union:
Recently we found out that shipping whisky and other liquids within the EU seems to be a problem. We never knew this before. This has to do with the VAT and the excise wich this products have.
We as a seller seems to be responsible for taxes in the country of destination. After a small investigation which we had with our competitors it seems that 95% of the webshops ships to almost every country in the EU without paying any taxes in the country of destination. Offcourse they pay all the duties in the country of origin. This is all a gray area for us and for our competitors we think. When we call our customs nobody can answer the questions we have.
To avoid any problems in the future we decided to stop shipping within the EU for now.
Meanwhile we will investigate how to do it the right way… and we hope to ship to some countries again soon.
Taxes within the EU are very weird. For example:
- When you ship as a private person to a private person in another country it seems to be oke. You don’t pay taxes.
- Driving over borders with 10 Liter of alcohol products is totally no problem.
- Driving back from France with 90 bottles of wine, totally no problem!
Offcourse we still ship in the Netherlands and Outside the European Union!
Options:
- You can still make an order on the website but you can only select pick up in shop. This means that in our store in Leiden, The Netherlands you products are reserved for you.
- You can also send the goods to yourself, send us a shippinglabel on the shippingcompany you like to use and we make sure the order is packed well and available for pick up in our store.
- Offcourse you are still able to order from our website when you change your adress to an Dutch delivery adress, for example, from friends who life in the Netherlands. They can easily ship to you.
We understand that you don’t have any interest reveiving our newsletter for now wich we understand. When you scroll down this newsletter you can remove yourself from the list.
All outstanding orders will be shipped the usual way!
