International Shipping Services & Costs
European customers & EORI
For business customers in Europe we now need your EORI number please so there aren't any delays at customs. You can enter this in the notes box at checkout or email us at hello@blackvelvetstyling.com
If you don't have an EORI number please use a residential name and address as the shipping address and don't include your business name in the shipping information.
The UK left the EU with a trade deal which allows trade between the UK and the EU without tariffs or quotas. However, local taxes and charges can sometimes be applied locally to you, and will differ in each country.
Please check any local charges in your area before ordering as we can't be held responsible for any charges applied after shipping. This is stated on the cart page also.
VAT
UK VAT is included in our prices.
For all other countries VAT is not charged and the price will be reduced when you go through the checkout and put in your delivery address.
However, VAT, duties or customs charges may be applied locally - please check for your country before ordering.
Especially if we are delivering to a business address or a commercial/business customer, import VAT may be charged in your local country.
