DDP Service

DDP Service – Advance Payment of Import Duties and Taxes

To ensure uninterrupted customs clearance and avoid delays for the consignee, Sign of Green GmbH may advance import duties, VAT, and customs processing charges in the destination country. These amounts are paid to the respective customs authorities or carriers on behalf of the customer and will be reimbursed as part of this DDP service.
This item does not represent a tax charged by Sign of Green GmbH but a pass-through service cost. Exported goods and related services are exempt from German VAT (§4 Nr.1a UStG).

The actual costs can only be calculated during the processing of the export paperwork. We will change the value accordingly.  If you have paid by credit card/ prepaid, you will be charged / invoiced separately for this service item.

In some destinations, we ship ONLY Delivered Duty Paid (DDP). 
This avoids customs delays which are frequent in these countries and ensures a smoother delivery to you. We will notify you if this is the case.

+  The costs are the same whether you pay the duties yourself or we advance them for you.
+ Your life gets easier :-)
