Import One-Stop Shop (IOSS) FAQ
What is the Import One-Stop Shop (IOSS)?
The Import One-Stop Shop (IOSS) is a system introduced by the European Union to simplify VAT collection for goods valued at €150 or less that are shipped to customers in the EU from outside the EU. By using IOSS, sellers collect VAT at the point of sale, ensuring that buyers do not have to pay additional import taxes or customs fees upon delivery.
How does IOSS benefit me as a customer?
IOSS makes your shopping experience easier and more transparent by:
Including VAT in the purchase price you see at checkout.
Eliminating unexpected customs charges or fees upon delivery.
Reducing potential delivery delays caused by customs clearance.
Will I have to pay any additional charges when my order is delivered?
No. If your order is covered by IOSS, all applicable VAT and import charges are already included in the price you pay at checkout. There will be no additional charges when your order is delivered.
How do I know if my order is covered by IOSS?
All orders shipped to EU countries and valued at €150 or less are covered by our IOSS registration. If your order qualifies, the VAT and import fees will be automatically calculated and included in the total price during checkout.
Does IOSS apply to all products?
IOSS applies to goods valued at €150 or less that are shipped from outside the EU to customers in EU member states. Certain items, such as excisable goods (e.g., alcohol or tobacco), may not qualify for IOSS coverage.
What happens if my order exceeds €150?
For orders valued above €150, IOSS does not apply. In such cases, import VAT and any applicable customs duties will need to be paid separately, usually upon delivery. We recommend checking your local regulations for further details.
Do I need to do anything to use IOSS?
No action is required on your part. We handle all the necessary IOSS processes on our end to ensure your order is VAT-compliant and free from additional import fees.
Does IOSS reduce delivery times?
Yes, IOSS can help speed up delivery times by streamlining the customs clearance process. Since VAT is prepaid, your order is less likely to be delayed during customs inspections.
Is IOSS available in all EU countries?
Yes, IOSS applies to all EU member states. Regardless of where you are in the EU, you can enjoy the benefits of IOSS when shopping with us.
Can I claim VAT back if I am VAT registered in the EU?
If you are VAT registered in the EU and wish to claim VAT back, please use the Guest Checkout and enter your VAT registration details before placing your order. It is not possible to enter your VAT details when using the PayPal express checkout.
What should I do if I still have questions?
If you have any further questions about IOSS or your order, feel free to contact our customer support team. We’re here to help!
Delivery Duty Unpaid for orders sent outside of the United Kingdom and EU over 150 euros
All orders sent to countries other than the United Kingdom and EU over 150 euros are shipped on a DDU (Delivery Duty Unpaid) basis, and the recipient may be subject to local taxes and customs import duty, which is charged on the value of the order.
Payment of these fees is the sole responsibility of the customer.
Order Tracking
Our standard shipping service is not tracked, and we cannot supply tracking information for your order.
We can offer alternative shipping using Royal Mail, tracked and signed for service. You can select this option at checkout. Please note full end-to-end tracking depends on the tracking service from the regional postal service in the destination country.
Once your order has been sent, you can view your tracking code, which is available in the My Account section. Please allow up to 72 hours for your tracking code to be added to your order after despatch.
Returns
Our 180-day returns guarantee means that if for any reason you are unhappy with your purchase, you may return it to us in its original condition within 180 days of the date you received the item, unopened (with any seals and shrink-wrap intact), and we will issue a full refund for the price you paid for the item. We can only accept the return of opened items if they are faulty.
All Raspberry Pi add-on boards are checked on a Raspberry Pi during production, and all inputs are checked to ensure the inputs and outputs are within the specified ratings.
We cannot accept returns for faults caused by over-voltage being applied to inputs on the boards by the purchaser.
When returning an item to us, please clearly state why you are returning your parcel and whether you require a refund or exchange. Please note that the parcel is your responsibility until it reaches us, so we recommend you send it via registered or recorded post.
The time it takes for a refund to reach the customer depends on the banks involved. It would normally take 3 - 5 working days to complete it.
Sales Tax
United Kingdom VAT at 20% is added to all orders for UK destinations. VAT is not added to NON-UK and EU destinations where the order total is more than 150 euros.
We are not responsible for any import taxes or VAT on the orders in the destination country. Import duty/tax is always paid by the person/company receiving the parcel/order.
Removed Delivery Destinations
We regret that we had to remove the following countries from our delivery destinations due to a very high failure rate of our parcels being delivered using the Royal Mail airmail service. This resulted in us refunding all of the missing orders, and we cannot continue to make such large losses by sending parcels to destinations where a large percentage of the items are lost in the postal systems.
Brazil, China, Israel, Mexico, Saudi Arabia, Singapore, Sri Lanka, Taiwan, Turkey, USA (due to shipping tariffs) and the United Arab Emirates.
Also, due to problems with the courier delivering parcels to these destinations, we cannot use a third-party courier service for these delivery destinations due to the extra costs involved.
Customers can purchase our products from one of our international resellers.
