On average we refund 15% more than what you are usually being refunded.

We “combine” all your purchases per country to determine the refund rate.

Refund table:

Total combined purchases (VAT included) (€)

Percentage of VAT refunded (%)

Percentage refunded vs. total purchases VAT included (%)
[VAT at 20%]

<500€

2.500€ - 3.500€

(The refund thresholds have slightly been increased as of March 1st, 2024 to reflect inflation. They had not been adapted since 2017.)

  • Example: if your combined purchases = € 1.500 VAT included, the total VAT amount is € 250 (based on a 20% VAT rate) and we will refund you € 200,00.

  • Based on the current average purchase basket size, we refund on average 85% of TVA 👍

Note: with a 20% VAT rate applied to an amount “tax excluded”, the VAT represents 16,66% of the full price (VAT included). The difference between those 16,66% and the refund percentage corresponds to the processing fee which allows us to offer you this service.
