How is the VAT applied for orders with the Order Portal?
All transactions and invoices issued through the Order Portal are direct. Orderchamp does not act as an intermediary in this process.
Since invoices are automatically generated by the system under your brand’s name, certain VAT rules apply:
-
Local VAT applies when the retailer is located in the same country where your brand is located.
-
Intra-EU shipments (to retailers based in another EU country than your own) are subject to 0% VAT due to the reverse charge mechanism. Both parties are responsible for correctly reporting this in their ICP VAT filings.
-
Shipments to countries outside the EU are also subject to 0% VAT.
However, there are a few exceptions that may impact VAT calculations:
-
If a retailer does not have a valid EU VAT number, your local VAT rate will apply, as the reverse charge mechanism cannot be used in that case.
Additionally, the system assumes all orders are shipped under DDU (Delivered Duty Unpaid) terms. This means that any customs duties, tariffs, or levies incurred for shipments outside the EU are to be paid by the recipient.
