fitnessdigital is a Spanish company operating under the distance selling scheme in Ireland and we are obliged to apply Irish VAT to our private customers.
However, this regulation does not apply to sales to companies, where Spanish VAT is applicable. Companies registered as intra-community traders are exempt from VAT.
When you register as a business on our website, we automatically check the intra-community VAT number on the VIES site (Vat Information Exchange System) to verify if your business is registered as an intra-community trader. If so, fitnessdigital will reimburse the corresponding VAT corresponding to the payment method used in the order, once the order is processed. On the other hand, if the company is not registered as an intra-community trader on the VIES website, we must issue the invoice with Spanish VAT.
Important: The intra-community VAT number always starts with the letters IE. If these country letters are not included, it will not be considered as a valid intra-community VAT.
