Blago lahko kupite brez DDV le, \u010de ga trgovina dostavi neposredno na naslov zunaj Zdru\u017eenega kraljeststva.

Ni nobene nadomestne sheme, ki jo vodijo trgovine ali refundacijske dru\u017ebe: edina mo\u017enost brez DDV v Veliki Britaniji je, da trgovina po\u0161lje va\u0161 nakup na naslov zunaj Zdru\u017eenega kraljevstva.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u010ce nakupuje\u0161 v Severni Irski, pred pla\u010dilom preveri, ali trgovec sodeluje v shemi in bo izdal papirni obrazec DDV407.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Kdo je upravi\u010den do vra\u010dila DDV<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Upravi\u010denost je odvisna najprej od tega, kje nakupuje\u0161.
