Under Article 11E of the Cyprus VAT Law, certain electronics sold to a VAT-registered business are invoiced without VAT. Instead of paying the 19% to us, your business declares it in its own VAT return (reverse charge).

How it works
Switch on Business customer to see covered products at their price without VAT.
At checkout choose an invoice and enter your company name and Cyprus VAT number.
We verify the number with the EU VAT register (VIES) on the spot.
You confirm the goods are for business use. The VAT on covered products is taken off the total.
Your invoice states “Reverse charge – Article 11E” with your VAT number.
The reverse charge only applies to businesses registered for VAT in the Republic of Cyprus buying for business purposes. If your number cannot be verified, the order is charged with VAT as normal.
