Orders placed on PICTO Online from a European Union country may be exempt from French value-added tax (VAT). In that case, both the payment and the invoice issued are exempt from VAT.
"Intra-EU VAT" is used to identify a company located within the European Union and exempt it from French tax.
To benefit from the intra-EU VAT exemption, the billing address on your PICTO Online account must be in a European Union country.
Orders placed from a European Union country but delivered outside the European Union are also exempt from value-added tax (VAT).
In this case, it is an export VAT exemption.
