VAT and Pricing Information
All prices in our store already include Polish VAT (5% , 8% and 23%), and our warehouse is located in Poland — a member of the European Union. There are no customs duties or additional import taxes within the EU. Prices of non-EU imported products (such as COOC olive oil or Nemechek products) already include all import duties and EU taxes.
New EU VAT Regulation – One Stop Shop (OSS)
Since July 1, 2021, the European Union has introduced the One Stop Shop (OSS) system. Under this regulation, sellers must apply the VAT rate of the buyer’s country and pay the VAT directly to that country’s tax office.
Our store currently cannot automatically apply each customer’s local VAT during checkout, so our prices are the same for all EU customers and include the Polish VAT of 5% (for extra virgin olive oil). In some countries where the local VAT on food products is much higher, this may result in a higher actual cost for us as the seller.
