BFPO & VAT Free Purchasing

If you have a BFPO delivery address outside the UK you may be entitled to tax free purchases. All items are shown exclusive of UK VAT at 20% (VAT Number 991 9911 64). The relevant VAT will be calculated at the checkout once you have entered your shipping address.

Outside Europe? Customers who have a delivery address outside the European Union (EU) do not have to pay UK Value Added Tax (VAT) and this includes members of HM Forces at BFPO addresses outside the EU. Personnel outside the EU will have the cost of their order recalculated with the VAT deducted.

Inside Europe? HM Forces personnel with a delivery address outside the UK but inside the EU may also be exempt from paying VAT but only when a correctly completed and signed form 15(10) has been provided. Available for download here.

Customers who give a BFPO delivery address in the EU will have their order processed, but it will not be dispatched until the completed 15(10) has been supplied. If within 14 days the 15(10) has not been submitted, the order will be canceled.

It is a criminal offense to make false declarations relating to your tax status.

Personnel serving on HM Ships are not VAT exempt.

There is currently a 2kg weight restriction on parcels to Iraq and Afghanistan. We can arrange shipment of more than 2Kg but please contact us for delivery schedules.

Tracking and insurance for orders sent to BFPO addresses will apply only up to receipt at the UK distribution hub.
