If You accept the repair we will provide You with an invoice for the repair labour, spare parts and other costs stated in the Service Charge.

11.9. Major changes to EU VAT are rolling out on July 1st 2021. These changes will affect everyone sending parcels from the UK to recipients in the EU.
All goods we sell here at kuul.co.uk to EU customers, regardless of value, will now be subject to VAT.
Import-One-Stop-Shop (IOSS) will roll out a solution to allow us to pay VAT in the EU effectively on goods less than £135/ €150, VAT will be applied at checked for EU destinations, however we are in the process of adding IOSS, currently any orders to the EU we will be using a DDU Method:
Delivery Duty Unpaid (DDU)
DDU is where our customers must pay customs, duties and fees after their goods have arrived in the destination country. Please note customer local VAT must be paid also. Currently we are not collecting customer local VAT at the point of sale.
In this scenario, local customs will contact the customer, who must pay any outstanding charges before their goods are released for final delivery.
Remember: Parcels will be held by customs until payments are made. Any payments not received may result in parcels being returned, delayed or in some cases destroyed. Kuul Limited will not be liable for any occurred costs such as rejected orders, unpaid fees, duty and or occurred charges, refusals by the customer. Kuul Limited will update kuul.co.uk for IOSS with an alternative method DDP (Delivery Duty Paid) where your Kuul Limited will collect all local EU VAT, customs, duties, and fees at point of sale/checkout before shipping goods into the destination country to make the process simpler.
