Hi, > Frederik, for clarification, have the figures you have generally been > quoting in your emails included GST?
Yes, it's called "MwSt" in Germany, it's always 19% except in esoteric cases that don't apply here, and you are not permitted to make an offer to a consumer that does not include it. On the "laser- line" page I mentioned earlier, you'll find that 19% is figured in the final amount quoted. If a business were to export stuff to the UK they would be allowed under EU regulations to export it using the national rate of 19% so you'd pay the exact price mentioned, unless they'd export more than a few hundred thousand Euros' worth of good each year, then they would be expected to charge you the UK tax instead of the German tax.
