Goods from Germany, sent to U.K. address, VAT refund when leaving EU with them

Upvote:-3

Point 7.1.2, quoted below, implies this is possible (the UK being the last EU country of your visit), assumming all the other conditions are fulfilled.

This should remain so as long as the United Kingdom remains in the European Union Customs Union.

Assume that the Customs Authorities of your home country may impose their own VAT (or equivalent) upon entry, so retaining a copy with the exact price may prove useful.

7.1.2 If you’re leaving the UK for another EU country
Show your goods, till receipts and refund form to customs in the last EU country you visit. The deadline for exporting the goods stays the same no matter how many countries you visit.
