According to European community template ref 2001/115/CE, the European VAT customer
number as well as the supplier VAT number must appear on the commercial invoice.
This rule applies only for commercial exchanges among members of the European
Economic Community (EEC) as well as for trading between compagnies located inside France.
For the orders in France the fiscal administration could denies the recovery of VAT
taxes if your VAT number si not printed on the commercial invoice.
For this reason and to avoid later any possible complication with the fiscal authority,
it is strongly recommmended to give your VAT number information when creating your
account on our web site. With this information we will be able to print your VAT number on
your commercial invoice.
For EEC countries except France without this information we have to invoice your
order including the VAT taxes. In that case the applicable VAT used is the VAT rate of the
shipping country where the goods will be delivered. On the other hand if this information
is given, we are allowed to invoice you duty free, which makes a nice saving for you.
