LEGNEX spol. s r.o. is a Czech supplier, registered VAT payer. If you purchase as a registered foreign VAT payer, you have the option to purchase from us automatically with zero VAT. This is possible under the regulations for intra-Community supplies, in accordance with Council Directive 2006/112/EC (VAT Directive) and its implementation in Czech tax legislation.

When ordering for a company, you will provide your VAT registration number, billing and delivery address. In the next step, the VAT registration in the European Commission database will be automatically verified online by VIES system. If the online verification is successful, your purchase will be automatically completed with 0% VAT. When processing the order, the company registration will be repeatedly verified by a service worker and the goods will then be released for shipment. The personal collection of goods without VAT is not possible by buyers based outside of Czech Republic.

Conditions for applying the 0% VAT tate

• Your VAT number must be registered in an EU country other than the Czech Republic.
• The transaction must meet the conditions for intra-Community supply. This means the goods must be physically transported to another EU country outside the Czech Republic.
   
  • The billing address and the delivery address must be in the same country where the company is registered.

How to check the validity of your VAT number?

Before making a purchase, check whether your VAT number is valid and active in the VIES system: > Check VAT Number in VIES

• Your VAT number must match your company’s name and address as registered in the tax system.
• The format of VAT numbers varies by country, so ensure your number is correctly formatted before verification.

What to do if your VAT number is not accepted?

If the system does not accept your VAT number, it may be due to the following reasons:

• The number was entered incorrectly.
• The number has expired or has not yet been activated in the VIES system.
• The company is not registered as a VAT-liable entity within the EU.
• Temporary malfunction or maintenance work at VIES.

Possible Solutions:

• Verify your VAT number using the VIES system and your national tax authority.
• Ensure your VAT registration is correctly recorded with your national tax authority.
• Contact your national tax authority if your VAT number is incorrect or inactive.
• Review the European Commission’s VIES system FAQ for detailed information on VAT number validation and EU cross-border VAT regulations.
• The VIES system may be temporarily unavailable due to maintenance or technical issues. If your VAT number is correct but has not been verified, please try again later.
