IVA

Because our products are for Autónomos, who ultimately do not pay VAT (IVA in Spanish), we are displaying prices without VAT, which will be added at checkout.

As an autónomo, you can reclaim it, usually automatically, at the end of the quarter.

If you are a business customer from the EU, you do not pay IVA if you enter a valid VAT ID.

If you are a business customer from outside the EU, you do not pay VAT in any case.
