VAT on local printing and delivery within EU

We deliver to an extensive list of countries and have local production in most regions.

Gelato is VAT registered and has local print partners and delivery in following countries in EU (please note that this is subject to change at any time). 

Note: You will find Gelato's local VAT ID on your order confirmation or invoice.

Important: We always aim to produce materials in the country of delivery, however, in order to ensure the best quality and fast delivery for our customers we may in some cases send a customer print job to a printer outside the country of delivery, even if we have a print partner in the country of delivery. For information on local production and delivery please see below the VAT treatment in each country.
