General Information



Since the goods sent by us are exclusively from Asia, we would like to give some tips and advice on customs and import VAT procedures.





Customs



For Germany, no duties are levied on electronic assemblies. For certain product groups (such as cables) are subject to customs fees. However, these are payable only to a total order value of 430 €. Everything below this amount remains free of duty for you!





Import VAT



The import turnover tax is currently 19% in Germany. It must always be paid for all deliveries. Keep in mind that it is also applied to the shipping costs. Therefore the prizes in our online shop can be regarded as net prices.
If you are entitled to deduct, you can claim the import VAT.





Settlement



Again and again we get questions on the conduct of customs formalities. For you, the customer, the process is relatively simple and without much effort. After ordering at Steinert Technologies in 80% - 90% percent of the time the products are normally delivered to you with the logistics companies (DHL, etc.). The remaining supplies the package is opened by the local customs authorities and controlled. You pay the import VAT payable directly to the delivery or logistics company. All our items will be indicated on the invoice with the TARIC code for the calculation of customs fees. For you, the customer, there are no more long waiting times and burdensome procedures!
