I want to regularly purchase stock from a supplier in the Netherlands, to sell in the UK via my company. I have placed a trial order with them for a couple hundred pounds and the stock arrived today via DPD. DPD charged import VAT and custom duty as I expected. I had given the supplier in the Netherlands my company EORI number, VAT number and company number, which they have provided to DPD. Should I now expect to receive a C79 certificate within the next few weeks? Or have I completely misunderstood the process? Thanks for any help.

Hi 5k1ny,
If you have been charged import VAT by DPD and they have used your details correctly you should receive C79 certificate.
You can access C79 online, please see below link for more information.
Manage your import duties and VAT accounts
You can also discuss postpone VAT accounting with DPD as alternative of paying the import vat and claiming it back.
Thank you.
