What VAT do I pay on a new car?+
Within the EU, a new car (up to 6 months from first registration or with no more than 6 000 km) is always taxed in the buyer's country – in Slovakia at 23 % VAT. Caradvance GmbH invoices you without German VAT and you pay the Slovak VAT in Slovakia: a private individual at their tax office within 7 days of purchase, a company in its VAT return. We will explain the procedure when you order. The advantage is the German price and choice, not a lower VAT.
