You usually need a VAT number if:

• You’re a professional seller (selling in connection with your trade, business or craft).
• Your objects sell to a buyer from a different country or a buyer outside of the European Economic Area (EEA) if you live in an EEA country.

Some countries apply exemptions or relief for small entrepreneurs. Please check with your tax advisor which rules apply to you. Sellers are always responsible for their own tax and legal position. If you do not have a valid VAT identification number but wish to register as a professional seller, please contact us.
